In the second of a series of webinars exploring and imagining the possibilities for integrating trees into New Zealand farm systems, we deep dive into the what, where, why and how of trees in agriculture with Dr Colin Meurk.
Topics covered in this webinar included:
- The various services provided by trees – carbon, shade, shelter, food, erosion control, biodiversity conservation, beetle banks.
- Species selection for remnant gullies, riparian corridors, shelterbelts, irrigator paddock corners, shrub-lines under irrigators, hedgerows, roadsides/verges, orchards, etc.
- And how we plant trees to get the most benefit – optimum patch densities for landscape/ecological integrity, and visibility providing ‘legibility’ and authenticity.
Colin also shared an insight into their upcoming app release ‘Right Plant Right Place Plant Selector’. If you would like to help test the beta version, please contact Colin at [email protected]
