Otago Regional Council initiates annual winter flyovers to monitor farming practices and assess water quality risks.

Otago Regional Council (ORC) will begin two-week annual winter flyovers to monitor farming practices, including winter grazing and land disturbances, across coastal and some Central Otago properties. The data collected will inform site visits to assess potential water quality risks. Farmers are encouraged to maintain current consents, follow best practices, and implement sediment controls.
