Weed resources
This guide has been developed to assist the community and stakeholders with identifying some of the highest priority weed species in our region--what they look like and control techniques--and how they can discharge their biosecurity duty. By doing so, they can help to protect our region from the threat posed by some of the most invasive weeds and help reduce the negative impacts on our environment, economy, and way of life.
This booklet has been developed to support people in the Far North Coast of NSW identify specific weeds that are more likely to spread due to mass water movement.
Everybody has a biosecurity duty. We can all play an active part in maintaining our region’s unique biodiversity.
