Cutover areas were aerially desiccated before replanting then oversown with a mix of introduced grasses (Yorkshire fog, Holcus lanatus; Punawai browntop, Agrostis capillaris) (Wardle 1991), and legumes (White clover, Trifolium repens; Birdsfoot trefoil, Lotus angustissimus) (Roy et al. 1998) to minimise surface erosion, predominantly by slope-wash, during the post-harvest period.
