Mike Barton: Farming with limits - the Lake Taupo experience

Mike and Sharon Barton farm beside Lake Taupo, and have had to adapt to tight controls on nitrogen leaching.

In this podcast from April 2013, Mike talks with B+LNZ Environment Extension Manager Erica van Reenen about their experiences, how they have adapted to the situation, and the possibilities certified good stewardship can open up for primary production.
