These Guidelines were originally written in 2009 by Nick Ledgard, a retired forester and now adviser to the Wilding Pine Network and the Waimakariri Ecological Landscape and Restoration Alliance and they were published by the New Zealand Forest Research Institute/Scion.
The Wilding Pine Network acknowledges the Department of Conservation Community Fund which provided the funding to update these guidelines and incorporate the latest best practice.
The purpose of these 2022 Guidelines is to assist landowners, community groups, and anyone keen to get involved in wilding control with choosing the right control method.
These Guidelines do not replace the Good Practice Guides published by the National Wilding Conifer Control Programme which can be found on www.wildingpines.nz/good-practice-guides/. These Guides provide detailed guidance for large scale control methods.
The WPN guidelines compliment the Good Practice Guides by providing individuals and groups undertaking control outside the oversight of the National Programme with a summary of control methods. The Good Practice Guides contain instructions to perform the control method or methods once chosen.
We hope the 2022 Guidelines help you in your work. If you are old school and like to read an actual and not a virtual copy or you would just like some to circulate, please let me know. jo@wildingpinenetwork.org.nz
