However, stakeholders have expressed concern about the lack of funding support for improving many of the currently available tools, which they are dependent on for the foreseeable future. To address this concern, NZBH-NSC has requested a review of the recently developed and close-to-market-tools, and identification of the key research required to support their incremental improvement. This review was carried out jointly by Manaaki Whenua − Landcare Research and Lincoln University between October 2016 and September 2017.61en© The authors 2017pest controlNew Zealand’s Biological Heritage National Science Challengepest managementApplied research to progress and support close-to-market pest control tools and their strategic applicationReportANZSRC::070205 Animal Protection (Pests and Pathogens)ANZSRC::050103 Invasive Species EcologyANZSRC::100202 Biological ControlANZSRC::060809 Vertebrate Biology
