Making a difference to on-ground management of invasive grasses — working together in a coordinated approach.
WeedScanTM is an app and website for identifying, reporting and managing priority weeds in Australia.
This report provides an overview of the proposed 20-year National Weed Biocontrol Pipeline Strategy.
Held in Dubbo the conference will showcase the latest research and ideas for managing the establishment, impact and spread of weeds.
Hear from experts on why importing or buying overseas plants and seeds online can be risky and how you can do it responsibly.
This manual provides key steps for undertaking weed biocontrol for more than 50 weeds species in south-east Australia. It provides information on:
– weeds and their background
– how to identify biocontrol agents (the weed’s natural enemies) and their potential impact on the weed
– how to source biocontrol agents
– how to redistribute these agents
– how to monitor establishment and dispersal of such agents.
This website is a decision-support tool that provides users with the ability to interrogate individual profiles for over 700 non-native naturalised and invasive plant species within Australia and assess weed threats for regions of interest under current and predicted future climates.
The integration of modelling, spatial analysis and species’ trait information provides a comprehensive assessment and information source for these plant species under both current and future climates.
This project aimed to develop biocontrol agents for the control of ten weeds of importance in Australia. Five of these weeds are Weeds of National Significance (WoNS): cabomba, Sagittaria, prickly acacia, silverleaf nightshade and African boxthorn. Fleabane and sowthistle have become major weeds of cropping land while mother-of-millions and giant rat’s tail grass impact on grazing land. The final weed, ox-eye daisy is becoming a serious environmental weed in crown land.
Thirty-two Weeds of National Significance (known as WONS) have been identified based on their invasiveness, potential for spread and environmental, social and economic impacts. View their profiles.
Visit our extensive list of 398 weeds profiles to help you better identify, plan and manage your weed problem.
