    Te Kōputu o Te Whakatōhea: A Tikanga of gathering and sharing to guide future Kai Sovereignty
    (Nga Pae o te Maramatanga, 2026-04-22) Davis, Shannon; Morris, Richard; Maxwell, TK; Happy, Isobel
    The story of Te Whakatōhea is indistinguishable from its relationship with kai. Starting with the iwi’s migration narratives from Hawaiki to Aotearoa New Zealand, through an economic flourishing that followed initial contact with European settlers, then as a matter of survival following raupatu, kai has been an integral component of Te Whakatōhea culture and tikanga. Today this relationship with kai is manifest in the industry-leading aquaculture enterprises of the iwi; however, there are also serious challenges present in terms of its people’s nutritional wellbeing, with access to fresh kai in the Ōpōtiki rohe limited for a high portion of the population. The research reported in this article investigated how spaces for growing kai in Te Whakatōhea’s past could give direction to future urban planning for increasing kai security and sovereignty. Through interviews with kaumātua, three urban planning models for integrating spaces to grow and access kai within future urban land use planning are developed in relation to the concept of whakakitenga-nui, which frames how kai planning can connect ancestral mātauranga to future land use planning and wellbeing strategies.

    A New Zealand sustainable development strategy - How meaningful can and will it be
    (Lincoln University, 2002) Buhrs, Ton; Kerr, S
    In July 2001, the New Zealand government announced that it will introduce a Sustainable Development Strategy. The intention is to have the Strategy in place by the time the 'Rio+ 10' World Summit will be held in Johannesburg in September 2002. The aim of the government is "to see New Zealand as a world leader in sustainable development" (Prime Minister Helen Clark, Address to Local Government New Zealand conference, 16 July 2001 ). This paper addresses questions and issues about the potential meaningfulness of the NZ Sustainable Development Strategy, in the light of developments in 'green planning' in other parts of the world and, specifically, the experience with the Environment 2010 Strategy that was introduced by the previous government. ls the new Strategy likely to be more meaningful and long-lived than its predecessor? Political-institutional issues in particular are identified as important.

    Economic research for economic planning in horticulture
    (Lincoln College. Agribusiness and Economics Research Unit, c1965) Philpott, B. P.
    This paper is concerned with setting out, very briefly, the broad aspects of a research programme related to the formation of an economic plan for the horticultural industry. Such a plan, involving the setting of national and regional production targets for individual products, has already been formulated as part of the work of the Agricultural Development Conference and the Agricultural Production Council, but nothing of a similar nature has been done, or is contemplated, for the horticultural industries.

    Research notes on discounting and budgeting
    (Lincoln College. Agribusiness and Economics Research Unit, c1967) Johnson, R. W. M.
    In revising the Cheviot budgets and analysis for publication a number of points have arisen which would bear further discussion. These mainly relate to whose viewpoint is being analysed, checking the budgets and time streams for mistakes, the relationships between the status-quo budgets and discounted results, and the residual method for land valuation. Comments on these notes would be appreciated.
