1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental and administrative performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by the consent holders,
this report also assigns a rating as to each companies environmental and administrative performance during
the period under review. The rating categories are high,

1.1.4 Evaluation of environmental performance
Besides discussing the various details of the performance and extent of compliance by the consent holders,
this report also assigns a rating as to each Company’s environmental and administrative performance during
the period under review. The rating categories are
levels. This had been addressed through extension of the irrigation disposal
system in 2007-2008, and by more intensive wastewater and groundwater monitoring. During the year
under review, there was a higher nitrogen load applied to the paddocks than in the 2017-2020 years. The
nitrogen application rates increased by about 14% on Farm 1 and 20% on Farms 2 and 3 in the 2019-2020
year, with further increases of 10% on Farm 1, 4% on Farm 2, and 18% on Farm 3 during the year under
review. On Farm 3,
extent of compliance by the consent holders,
this report also assigns a rating as to each Company’s environmental and administrative performance during
the period under review. The rating categories are high, good, improvement required and poor for both
environmental and administrative performance. The interpretations for these ratings are found in
Appendix II.
For reference, in the 2021-2022 year, consent holders were found to achieve a high level of environmental
performance and
rhododendron seed were collected, and
these have been sown at Pukeiti by Andrew Brooker. The germination
rate has been very good. Over 80 percent have germinated.
In a few years some of the species, no doubt, will be distributed to the
network of gardens with which agreements have been signed, and
offered for sale to members.
