The group organised protests around the country last year against environmental regulations, the 'ute tax' and a seasonal worker shortage.
The demonstrations caused widespread disruption nationwide.
Ardern has twice declined protest organisers' requests for a meeting.
A spokesperson for Ardern has confirmed she will meet with protest organisers, who were contacted about the development earlier this week.
A date for the meeting has not yet been set.
The spokesperson said the meeting will be held with other farming leaders.
