3 For example, New Zealand has 76 times less tax take to spend per threatened species in its care than does the USA (Towns & Williams 1993).

4 Conservation management is often called a "crisis discipline" (Soule 1987).

5 Much of New Zealand's threatened biota persist in small fragmented populations, have low reproductive rates and few adaptations to protect themselves from new disturbance regimes and introduced predators and competitors. Even if a huge amount of care could be lavished on them, the rate of recovery will often be very slow and further extinctions are likely.

6 Dr Billy Hamilton is a population ecologist and behaviourist with particular experience in native fish. Recently he has been involved in evaluation for Forest Stewardship Certifications and preparation of conservation management plans for managed forests. John Hutcheson has 30 years experience working on exotic and indigenous forest health dynamics and the development of a pragmatic approach to insect community characterisation. He has worked in a wider variety of human modified landscapes since leaving the Forest Research Institute in 1997. Dr Henrik Moller has over 23 years of experience researching introduced pests in forests and pastoral landscapes for TB mitigation and conservation of indigenous biota. Chris Perley has degrees in Agricultural Science and Forestry Science, 18 years experience in operational management and policy analysis relating to forestry, farm forestry and the environment. He is actively involved in public debates of national conservation philosophy.

22 Klimaszewski and Watt (1997). These figures for endemism are based on historical collections, and given the widespread anthropogenic changes in the NZ landscape over the last 40 years it is possible that they are now overestimates. There is a need for reassessment based on current land management systems.

34 Compared to other countries.

35 Williams (1973) and Gibb & Flux (1973) highlight the contrast between birds and mammals in this regard. Introduced mammals have gone everywhere in New Zealand including the forest systems, perhaps because of the lack of competitors. Very few introduced birds have penetrated forests (chaffinches are a notable exception), perhaps because of the suite of specialised extant indigenous species there.

36 Moller et al. (1991) showed that over 90% of the honeydew resource was unused until wasps appeared. Common wasps were able to displace the earlier invader, the German wasp because they were able to win a competitive race by exploiting the resource much faster than could common wasps (Harris et al. 1996). This in turn has led to greater competition between native birds and wasps, which remove over 99 percent of the honeydew standing crop for 3 months of the year. The relentless threat and need for biosecurity is illustrated by Vespula pensylvanica. It is even more of a threat because it out-competes common wasp, and if established will turn the competitive pressure on endemic biota all the more.

37 Moller et al. (1993), Moller (1996).

38 The latter is a result of physiological changes consequent on more extreme abiotic conditions. There is now general international acknowledgement of the applicability of Manion's (1981) three-factor model of plant health decline within indigenous systems (Mueller-Dombois 1987). The model includes predisposing, inciting and contributing factors and has been documented in New Zealand with the widespread decline of beech forests following the 1972-73 spring droughts (Hosking and Hutcheson 1986, 1988, Hosking 1993). Essentially older trees and those on sites with low moisture retention capability (predisposing factors) were physiologically shocked by drought over the leaf-flushing period (inciting factor), and their nutritional potential to insects and pathogens (contributing factors) was increased. The sequence is also seen in interactions at the individual plant level during normal successional progress (e.g. Hutcheson 1991) where insects are seen to supply mechanisms for ecosystem adaptability. A wide range of examples of changing nutritional potential within biotic systems in association with changing environmental factors is discussed by White (1993). The same general model is broad enough to be applied (with varied emphasis) to situations involving new distributions of organisms and even to situations where combination of formally geographically isolated microbial strains results in more virulent pathogenic interactions, e.g. chestnut blight.

39 Jackson and Stucki (1986). The subsequent conceptual, research and application progress made by the New Zealand team in this area has received considerable world recognition (Jackson et al. 1996).

46 Merton (1982). Thomas (1963) also noted no grass grub parasitism by P. cana in extensive pastoral areas (Cameron and Wigley 1989), and Kelsey and Hoy (1950) considered that native parasitoid species were unlikely to prevent damaging population increases of grass grub in extensive pasture.

47 Davidson and Davidson (1992) provide an equivalent example of the way total removal of the indigenous system from the production landscape is counterproductive to Australian pest control. The female wasp biocontrol agent of Australian grass grub is flightless and requires feeding and fertilisation after every few eggs laid. Males regurgitate nectar for the female during copulation, but their range is limited to within about 200m of indigenous nectar sources. Where farmland has been totally cleared, one of the weapons in the potential arsenal against the grass grub is not available.

118 Farm forestry has a particular role to play within integrated landscape. The benefits can be social (aesthetics etc), economic (due to complementary cashflow from complementary land to pasture, as well as providing shelter, contingency to allow different farming methods because of shelter, shade, or through direct returns) and environmental (attracting insects, birds; providing connectivity and important patches, reducing run-off into water; and reducing soil erosion). Most importantly, the motivation for farm forestry remains strong, yet no strategy exists to encourage it within farm communities.

198 Soule (1987) coined the term "extinction vortex" to emphasise the combined effects of several ecological threats that are causing a global extinction crisis. New Zealand has an extremely high rate of extinction and endangerment for its size, principally because its endemic island fauna evolved in the absence of browsing and predatory mammals and snakes. Our species have therefore not coped well with the onslaught of invasive predators and competitors brought to New Zealand in this age of travel.

242 Principle 6 of FSC (Environmental Impact) includes the following statement, which makes reference to landscape scales: Forest management shall conserve biological diversity and its associated values, water resources, soils, and unique and fragile ecosystems and landscapes, and, by so doing, maintain the ecological functions and the integrity of the forest.

  • Assessment of environmental impacts shall be completed -- appropriate to the scale, intensity of forest management and the uniqueness of the affected resources -- and adequately integrated into management systems. Assessments shall include landscape level considerations as well as the impacts of on-site processing facilities. Environmental impacts shall be assessed prior to commencement of site-disturbing operations.
  • Safeguards shall exist which protect rare, threatened and endangered species and their habitats (e.g., nesting and feeding areas). Conservation zones and protection areas shall be established, appropriate to the scale and intensity of forest management and the uniqueness of the affected resources. Inappropriate hunting, fishing, trapping and collecting shall be controlled.
  • Ecological functions and values shall be maintained intact, enhanced, or restored, including:
  1. Forest regeneration and succession.
  2. Genetic, species, and ecosystem diversity.
  3. Natural cycles that affect the productivity of the forest ecosystem.
  • Representative samples of existing ecosystems within the landscape shall be protected in their natural state and recorded on maps, appropriate to the scale and intensity of operations and the uniqueness of the affected resources.
  • Written guidelines shall be prepared and implemented to: control erosion; minimize forest damage during harvesting, road construction, and all other mechanical disturbances; and protect water resources.

Anon 1988, 1989, 1991; Ryan & Rhoades 1988; Stevenson 1990). The case study could explore whether technology can partly compensate for declines in pollinating animals.

357 For example, gorse rarely grows above about 1000m in the South Island, whereas broom can go much higher into the tussock lands. See Hill and Sandrey (1986) and Richardson and Hill 1998 for issues of lags in spread of gorse.

361 This is a continuation of a dominant philosophy in public sector review, which began in 1984 and some commentators suggest has produced a centralised and authoritarian perspective do the detriment of social capital and bottom up approaches, as advocated by the CBD (Wallis & Dollery, 2001).

366 Leopold's A Sand County Almanac (1949) is arguably the classic text articulating an ethic toward the environment by farmers, foresters, fishers, hunters and whole communities. It embraced culture and nature as one, with people living from what the land provided while honouring obligations toward the environment (also the underlying message of our Resource Management Act).

367 Wes Jackson is an agro-ecologist, founder of the Land Institute studying Prairie ecology and sustainable farming methods, and author of Becoming Native to this Place (1994) and Altars of Unhewn Stone (1987).

368 Wendell Berry is the author of a number of influential collections of essays on the association between people and the environment in which they live, including A Continuous Harmony: Essays Cultural and Agricultural (1972), The Unsettling of America (1977), and The Gift of Good Land (1981).

369 Freyfogle is the author of Bounded People: Boundless Land (1998) examining human rights and obligations in relation to land where no boundaries apply within the landscape.

All of these authors strongly articulate a concern for both people (especially rural communities) and the environment in which they live, with a keen interest in seeing both sustained.
