<P> In New Zealand , agriculture is the largest sector of the tradable economy , contributing about two - thirds of exported goods in 2006 - 7 . For the year ended March 2002 , agricultural exports were valued at over $14.8 billion . New Zealand is unique in being the only developed country to be totally exposed to the international markets since subsidies , tax concessions and price supports for the agricultural sector were removed in the 1980s . However , as of 2017 , the New Zealand Government still provides state investment in infrastructure which supports agriculture . </P>
