Abstract: The New Zealand Forest Service and the Department of Lands and Survey are jointly developing a 6705 hectare farm/ forest on a block of unoccupied Crown land in Hawke's Bay. When completed the venture will consist of a combination of grassed paddocks, wide spaced Pinus radiata growing both in grassed and non-grassed areas, and protection plantings. The internal rate of return for this scheme has been calculated at 15% excluding land costs, or 12% if the land value {at 1974) is included.
