Shooting is a quick way to reduce pest numbers
a short time before planting.
Pest animal damage to freshly planted seedlings
can be severe.
INTRODUCTION
The Riparian margins, particularly if retired,
improve the habitat of pests as well as
desirable wildlife. Four pests, possums,
hares, rabbits and pukekos are likely to be
problems alongside Taranaki's streams :
• Possums, as well as browsing palatable
erosion, overland flow and wind blow (e.g. space planted trees, windbreaks, cover crops)
Measures to prevent or remedy soil damage
Previous use of land, and future use of land
Using sub-soiling or ripping to remedy compaction of soils.
Leave grassed areas around rocks, gullies and riparian margins. If spraying out pasture, first identify areas that won’t be worked or re-sown e.g. gullies, runners, riparian margins and rocky areas. In heavy soils, cultivate soil when conditions are dry enough to reduce
Comprehensive Farm Plan or
Conservation Plan for sustainable land use.
Help is also available to solve any problems which
arise; for instance with plant establishment, stock
management, weed and pest control, or channel
maintenance.
