Valuing indigenous biodiversity

Kerr, Geoffrey N.; Sharp, B. M. H.
Abstract
The primary objective of the project is to create a method that can be applied by Biosecurity New Zealand (BNZ) to rapidly and accurately evaluate and rank projects aimed at protecting indigenous biodiversity from incursions of exotic pests and diseases. This presentation focusses on case study summaries of wilding pines and wasps, investigating better protection of indigenous biodiversity based on decisions supported by economic quantification of costs and benefits.
