enabled implementation of farm plan recommendations in large areas of the eastern hill country (see map). In the past five years, farmers have planted over 20,000 poplar poles, established 203 hectares of forestry and erected 116.8 km of fencing to retire 3,333 hectares of marginal land.

Introduction
The leaves of most poplars and many willows are very
palatable to livestock. Young poles need to be protected
from stock until there’s sufficient foliage beyond the
reach of browsing animals, for the trees to survive.
Information Sheet 33 (Pole planting - establishment)
outlines strategies farmers can use to protect young
poles.
Once poles are established, their palatability can be
turned to advantage, as supplementary fodder for
stock. There are three ways they can be
poplar and willow poles. Taranaki Regional Council acknowledges the co-funding of STRESS by the MPI Hill Country Erosion Fund. Council can also assist planholders with One Billion Trees grant applications which includes forestry and reversion.

scheme, the Carvers have planted exotic forestry and retired native bush on 47 hectares of highly erodible land. They’ve completed more than 3 kilometres of fencing, with another 3 under way. They’re stabilising slopes with poplar and willow poles they’re growing themselves. They’re also fencing and planting waterways on their dairy property. And the Carvers are retiring, covenanting, fencing and protecting 97 hectares of mature native forest with assistance from STDC, QEII Trust and the TRC’s Key
koromiko (Hebe stricta), five-finger
(Peudopanax arboreus), swamp coprosma (Coprosma tenuicaulis), and
coastal tree daisy (Olearia solandri). Sedges include Schoenoplectus validus
and Baumea rubiginosa.
New Zealand spinach (Tetragonia trigyna) and the convolvulous Calystegia
sepium, are scattered throughout the flaxland. Pine (Pinus radiata), some
poplars (Populus sp.), bracken (Pteridium esculentum) and umbrella sedge
(Cyperus ustulatus) border the edges of this wetland vegetation.

Weeds - Low There are numerous exotic species in recently retired/planted
pastoral margins and on the forest periphery, although the density
of these is currently low. Within the forest area the overall the
incidence of pest plants that threaten biodiversity is currently low
at the site.
