Comments (edit) I own a 228-acre hill country farm in the Manawatu and am interested in finding ways to improve the sustainability of the property. Fortunately I have Bush Vitality - a very impressive work that provides a huge amount of valuable and practical information. My background is in science and technology and I can see that this book promotes an enlightened insight to smart environmental management of the future.Congratulations - make sure you get this info out there! Andy Shilton, PhD. What a marvellous publication! This has got so much comprehensive and
practical material in it that no-one will ever need to compile another
bush protection/ rehabilitation/recognition guide. The things I have
longed for in previous publications in vain, are sensible planting guides,
good photo captioning and of course a smart and user-friendly presentation.
This book is an important
tool for landowners to assess and improve areas of biodiversity on their
land. As one of the main organisations offering protection mechanisms
for natural and open space areas on private land the QEII National Trust
has a keen interest in this initiative and promotes the book to its
covenantors. See also (edit)
