This report summarises potential impacts of climate change on pests, weeds and
diseases of relevance to New Zealand’s biosecurity systems. It represents the best
current information from experts in the Crown Research Institutes and Lincoln University.
Identification, quantification, modelling and economic assessment of options for the management of poultry, piggery and dairy waste to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions via anaerobic digestion and associated biogas utilisation for energy generation.
This report aims to develop a predictive lifetime feed intake model for sheep to enable sensitivity testing of different on-farm genetic and management technologies for methane mitigation.
This report examines the psychological, social and other factors that determine farmers' different responses to environmental change. In particular, it is designed to explain why some farmers implement environmental strategies but others remain intransigent and resistant to change.
Traditionally, New Zealand pastoral farmers have adapted their farming systems in response to extreme climatic events. This project will research these responses to provide information on how farmers could (and should) adapt to the extreme climatic events that may result from climate change.
