Waipa Afforestation Feasibility Study

Abstract: The Waipa afforestation feasibility study is to assist with implementation of the Waipa Catchment Plan and the Waikato-Waipa River Restoration Strategy. The study evaluates alternative land use options that result in the establishment of semi-permanent (woody) vegetation on erosion-prone land.
Statement: Link to the report: https://discover.wairc.govt.nz/otcs/llisapi.dll/overview/11410868 The Waipa afforestation feasibility study aims to reduces soil erosion and thereby the transfer of sediment to water, reduce added nutrients through forests because they do not generally require fertilisation, and limit stock access to waterways through planting. Profitable forestry, like profitable farming requires an appropriate infrastructure and processing facilities that are not too distant. Consideration of the spatial distribution of a forest resource becomes important. Once the afforestation area is identified, the economics of afforestation alternatives are evaluated. The options that have been examined include the establishment of radiata pine, redwood, mānuka for honey products, or natural reversion to indigenous forest. As applicable Indufor has also presented the potential contribution of carbon-related revenues. The afforestation area has been divided into a series of 20 ha grids, or planning units (plunits). These provide modelling outputs at near property-level resolution. Several scenarios have been produced and linked to the GIS to create spatial layers. These layers can be used to illustrate the impact on the afforestation pattern due to price changes for timber, honey and carbon. A separate analysis calculates the Net Present Value (NPV/ha) by afforestation options for each plunit. This enables a comparison of the four scenarios. The area available for afforestation has been further refined by the removal of fragmented areas less than 20 ha. The resulting afforestation area has been intersected with property boundaries to calculate the afforestation area by farm. It is proposed that this overlay could be used to support catchment-scale afforestation planning efforts.

Abstract: Identifies the optimum land use conversion type per plunit based on model scenario 3 where it is assumed that long term Manuka honey prices trend up to reach a premium of $70 per kg of honey. The other commodities modeled remain at base pricing levels.
Statement: Link to the report: https://discover.wairc.govt.nz/otcs/llisapi.dll/overview/11410868 The Waipa afforestation feasibility study is to assist with implementation of the Waipa Catchment Plan and the Waikato-Waipa River Restoration Strategy. The study evaluates alternative land use options that result in the establishment of semi-permanent (woody) vegetation on erosion-prone land. The Waipa afforestation feasibility study aims to reduces soil erosion and thereby the transfer of sediment to water, reduce added nutrients through forests because they do not generally require fertilisation, and limit stock access to waterways through planting. Profitable forestry, like profitable farming requires an appropriate infrastructure and processing facilities that are not too distant. Consideration of the spatial distribution of a forest resource becomes important. Once the afforestation area is identified, the economics of afforestation alternatives are evaluated. The options that have been examined include the establishment of radiata pine, redwood, mānuka for honey products, or natural reversion to indigenous forest. As applicable Indufor has also presented the potential contribution of carbon-related revenues. The afforestation area has been divided into a series of 20 ha grids, or planning units (plunits). These provide modelling outputs at near property-level resolution. Several scenarios have been produced and linked to the GIS to create spatial layers. These layers can be used to illustrate the impact on the afforestation pattern due to price changes for timber, honey and carbon. A separate analysis calculates the Net Present Value (NPV/ha) by afforestation options for each plunit. This enables a comparison of the four scenarios. The area available for afforestation has been further refined by the removal of fragmented areas less than 20 ha. The resulting afforestation area has been intersected with property boundaries to calculate the afforestation area by farm. It is proposed that this overlay could be used to support catchment-scale afforestation planning efforts.
