Summary
A project to determine the status of northern rata in the Wellington Conservancy was funded by Project Crimson in 1998.
An objective detailed in the resulting report was to ensure the continued survival of northern rata throughout its current range. Leading on from that, the aim of the investigation detailed in this document was to assess the effect of possum control on the condition of northern rata trees in the Tararua Forest Park.
