The Provincial Growth Fund investment will be used by Predator Free 2050 Limited, to contract projects that will bring tens of thousands of hectares of rural and forested land under predator control.
Regional Economic Development Minister Shane Jones says New Zealanders know that a healthy environment is at the heart of a healthy economy.
He says this will reduce the need to use 1080 to maintain predator free status in these areas.
