Farmers leading Biodiversity Enhancement.

With the recent launch of a book of Biodiversity Case Studies, brought together by Janet Gregory, Landcare Trust and Biodiversity Southland Co-ordinator, there is a new resource for farmers to read about how they might protect biodiversity on their farms. Covering eight different examples the book outlines how farmers went about getting funding assistance to bring to fruition their goals of protecting areas that they saw as special. The book covers topics like fencing off forest remnants, undertaking pest control, reinstatement of wetlands. If you would like a copy of the book then please contact Janet Gregory, (03) 208 7883 or email [Enable JavaScript to view protected content]
