Plant Your Patch

Identify ideal trees for your land

English Māori

Plant Your Patch

This tool has been developed to give landowners the confidence to include more trees in their pastoral landscape and realise the benefits that the addition of trees provides, while minimising potentially negative effects on overall farm production.

The focus is on smaller stands of trees integrated into the farming landscape in such a way that productivity can be maintained or enhanced, and that offers opportunities to support social and cultural aspirations.

This 'Plant Your Patch' app has been developed with funding from Te Uru Rākau's 1 Billion Trees Programme and through the research programme “The New Zealand bioeconomy in the digital age” funded by the AgResearch Strategic Science Investment Fund. It was developed in collaboration with members of the NZ Farm Forestry Association, NZ Landcare Trust, Aramiro Whenua Trust, Beef and Lamb, as well as researchers from AgResearch and Scion.
