Your Shareholding

   
​Investment decisions are very important; they often have long term consequences. Read all documentation carefully, ask questions and seek independent advice before committing yourself.

How do I become a shareholder?

If you farm in New Zealand follow the steps below to become a Ravensdown shareholder:

 - Download and read the Investment Statement and the NZ Directors Statement.
 - Download our Shareholder Application form or call our Customer Centre on 0800 100 123 to request a copy.
 - Complete the application form and send to us along with payment for your initial investment.

All new shareholders are required to purchase a minimum of 100 Ravensdown shares. Each Ravensdown share is valued at $1.00. Your application will go to the Ravensdown Board for approval at the next available Board meeting. To qualify for any rebate that may be available for purchases made during the financial year ending 31 May you must lodge your application before 20 April. Those shareholders applying after that date will only be eligible for any rebate on purchases made during the next financial year.

Also available to view the Ravensdown Constitution.

You cannot become a Ravensdown shareholder if your business is involved in the on-selling of fertiliser.

Can I surrender or transfer my shares?

Because things don’t always stay the same we can work with you as your farming needs change.

 - All applications for the transfer or surrender of shares are governed by the constitution of the co-operative.
 - The board of directors has developed a policy regarding surrender applications as detailed in our Investment Statement.

Application forms for the transfer or surrender of shares are available from our Customer Centre.
