Ensure all stock tracks are well-drained and sited away from watercourses Reduce sediment load in watercourses Improved spawning grounds for fish Maintain and enhance biodiversity: Aquatic - improve habitat and management
Reduce flooding
Reduce the amount of manure washed off fields into watercourses Prevent manure from entering watercourses Reduce losses of faecal indicator organisms (FIOs) to water Reduced faecal indicator organisms (FIOs) in water Improve water quality - biological
Avoid substances with a high BOD entering watercourses Improve surface water quality (chemical) - other
Reduced phosphorus in water Improve surface water quality (chemical) - nutrients
Reduced eutrophication Maintain and enhance biodiversity: Aquatic - reduce nutrient impacts
Reduce losses of nitrogen fertiliser via surface run-off Reduced nitrogen in water Reduced eutrophication Maintain and enhance biodiversity: Aquatic - reduce nutrient impacts
