A view of the lower Wanganui River in South Westland showing the line of silt and debris left from where the river broke breached a stop bank and flowed across farmland towards Lake Ianthe, in the distance. Much of that farmland is reclaimed riverbed.

Five percent of the country's soil is highly erodible, the majority of that in the North Island. Photo: Supplied / West Coast Regional Council
