land management and
hill-country erosion
The Council works closely with landowners to reduce
accelerated erosion through its Sustainable Land
Management Programme. Council officers prepare
comprehensive farm plans using land use capability
mapping to determine property-specific soil
conservation solutions.
Over the last 25 to 30 years, we have prepared 464
comprehensive farm and agroforestry plans for around
210,294ha (69%) of the eastern hill country under
adopted by this Council under various legislative frameworks
including, but not restricted to, the Local Government Act 2002 and the Land Transport
Management Act 2003.
