    Alternative Strategy: Elders Forestry has piloted a system of taking harvest residues deposited at harvest landings after in field chip operations and mulching and re-distributing them across the site to provide a mulched layer which returns nutrients in harvest residues back to the site. This will dramatically reduce the fertiliser requirements for 2R plantations which currently require large inputs of chemical fertiliser to remain productive.
    Alternative Method: Reduction, Removal
    Active Ingredient:
    Alternative Trial: Yes
    Alternative Type: Good management practice
    Pest Type: Weed

    Alternative Strategy: Experimenting with polymer coated fertilisers that can be placed in the planting hole in direct contact with the root ball. Early indications are that this may lead to rapid initial growth and hence reduce the need for post plant weed control and browsing animal control.

    Alternative Strategy: A pre-emergent screening trial on second rotation sites to test efficacy of traditional first rotation herbicide prescriptions found the most effective prescription was the combination of simazine and mesotrione which allows for a 50% reduction in the use of simazine and give superior control of the predominantly broadleaved weeds found on 2R sites. Eucmix, containing no simazine also gave good control but is not suitable for all soil types.

    Alternative Strategy: Trialled 'scalping' physical removal of suface 10 cm of soil for 50 cm on either side of the planting line as an alternative to chemical weed control. Weeds encroached rapidly from unscalped edges, in some areas resluted in erosion, restricited growth due to removal of surface organic layer containing most soil available nutrients
