Rex Faithfull drives his farm buggy across a paddock beside Lake Omapere in Northland. He says Lake Omapere is now back in good health and the introduction of grass carp has helped. Farm run-off is a factor in the threatened biological collapse of the lake. While not keen on a riparian planting strip being established on all of his lakeside property, Rex Faithfull says he would be willing to plant out the flats in the foreground.
