… more recently the South Taranaki and Regional Erosion Support Scheme. Pasture covers 436 hectares but steep, erosion-prone land is put to other uses. Fifty-seven hectares of native bush has been fenced and another 63 hectares of bush and 20 hectares of scrub have been retained. Over 25 years, 90 hectares of production forestry has been established and in 2013, a further 4.5 hectares was fenced and planted. They've planted 520 poplar poles to shelter stock and
consultation with the South Taranaki District Council to clear willow growth and maintain an adequate channel for the river in the vicinity of the Waitotara Township. page Very little if any works were undertaken to clear the heavily congested channel of willows and poplars until 2005 in response to the large of devastating flood in 2004. 2.1. The 2004 flood The 2004 flood was considered to have been the most significant flood event in living memory in the Waitotara
… erodible soils may seem considerable challenges, but sustainable and profitable farming is still possible. Campbell and Jodene McCowan work hard to achieve it on their 118 hectare frontal hill- country farm at Huiroa, inland from Stratford. By using their TRC Farm Plan and with assistance via the STRESS erosion scheme, the McCowans are reducing threats to water quality from soil erosion and flooding. They're planting scores of poplar and willow poles to hold soil, fencing and
Council Land Management Officer Kevin Cash helps them work out how to achieve their goals and protect their soil. To date, the Bielskis have planted 21,000 eucalyptus trees over 22ha, let 15ha revert to manuka, placed a QE2 covenant on 54.2ha of manuka and regenerating native forest, fenced those areas, and planted hundreds of poplars and willows in consultation with Kevin. The poles and trees help hold hillsides together, the Bielskis get income from

diverse. These include: • Outer bends on river channels: These are the most common sites of scour by floodwater. Here the roots of densely planted poplars or shrub willows can anchor the bank. • Straight reaches: Here there is little risk of bank scour during floods, but the bank frequently collapses due to hydraulic “draw-down” of groundwater in alluvium as the floodwater recedes. Where trees are planted at a wide spacing, their roots can nevertheless interlock sufficiently to protect scarce
