Adaptation is a positive response to the prospect of climate change. This stakeholder report presents the key findings of the first comprehensive evaluation of climate change adaptation options in New Zealand for land-based sectors. The report integrates research and new analysis from a supporting technical report to present the state of adaptation knowledge in New Zealand. Many adaptation solutions are already part of current management approaches. They allow land managers to continue to pursue existing objectives – albeit under changing conditions – and to be more resilient. They can also access more strategic options that further improve the resilience of businesses. In the event of more severe climate impacts, land-based sectors have recourse to more comprehensive ‘transformational’ solutions. Adaptation solutions don’t just help the land-based sectors cope with climate change: they consolidate and can improve their overall position. This report identifies solutions available to land management professionals in each sector. This comprehensive bank of knowledge will help the land-based sectors adapt to meet the challenges and capture the opportunities that lie ahead.
