‘The impact of invasive, non-native
plant species like African lovegrass is
increasing dramatically. Many consider
it a pest species because it dominates
native pastures reducing biodiversity
and essential ecosystem functions.
We worked with local landholders in
Bega, NSW and found local knowledge
coupled with scientific methods is a
smart approach to developing solutions.
This approach could be useful for
understanding and managing other
invasive plants and animals.’
