media
posted on 2024-09-12, 03:01 authored by Tom Mackay-Smith, Raphael SpiekermannIn this research video, we explore the results of Tom Mackay-Smith's PhD at Massey University, measuring the impact of spaced kānuka trees on surface runoff and sediment and nutrient losses in New Zealand hill country.
Results of this project include:
- Significantly more surface runoff under the trees.
- Likely a response of livestock preferentially grazing the pasture under the trees.
Funding
Funded by the New Zealand Ministry for Business, Innovation and Employment’s Our Land and Water National Science Challenge (Toitu te Whenua, Toiora te Wai), as part of the project Silvopastoral Systems
