2 Contributing factors to the wilding conifer problem Legacy source plantings dating from early 1900s Private and crown land multiple land owners Lack of clear roles and responsibilities Lack of a coordinated effort Problem is often unrecognised until trees have cones and are creating further spread with increased costs of control
3 Strategy Vision The right tree in the right place
4 Strategy Goal Prevent the spread of wilding conifers and contain or eradicate established stands by 2030
5 What the strategy covers Prevent continuing spread Eradicate or contain priority sites Funding framework to address legacy plantings Improving and aligning policy (e.g. RMA, BSA) Awareness raising and behaviour change Roles for Central government, Local government, land occupiers, and communities Research and practice improvement
6 The strategy will be available on Contact MPI by
