Liberating gorse weevils on a gorse infested area. These insects do not attack the gorse itself, but may destroy as much as 95 per cent, of the seed. In this way they do much to prevent the pest from spreading to clean land.

Left.- A low producing sward with a consequent low-carrying capacity leads to the rapid ingress of gorse. Right.—The burning of standing gorse without the subsequent sowing of suitable grass and clover seed usually results in a dense stand of gorse seedlings.

Left.—Grubbing gorse by hand. This is the method commonly adopted wherever the gorse is not too dense on infested pastures. Right.—Showing the effect of burning gorse. The heat generated by the burning appears to assist the germination of the seeds, and promotes regeneration.

Upper-The use of wire battens and a proportion of iron posts is an advantage where gorse is burnt. Middle—Gorse fired 2 years previously and before the sticks are burnt. Lower-Sticks of gorse cleared and thrown into heaps for burning and the area ready for spraying.

Contrasts These photographs show contrasts of scenes. In each case the illustration on the left shows the area before burning and sowing, and the illustration on the right shows the same area as it is to-day. In Figs. 1, 2, 3 and 4 the area was sown in the autumn of 1939. The sowing was followed by a long period of dry weather, during which the gorse germinated while the grass and clover seed did not. Before burning the gorse was fairly scrubby and poor in growth. Conditions were poor for gorse control, and some of the seedlings and growth from stumps have grown into the spine stage. This is the worst controlled area. In Figs. 5 and 6 the sowing took place at the same time, but as the growth was tall and comprised largely tea-tree, the ash was more abundant. The gorse here is almost entirely gone, and what survives is well under control and should disappear within a few months’ time.
