New skeleton weed management guide released

A new guide to help property owners manage skeleton weed infestations has been made available by the Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development. “This management guide aims to increase the capacity of landholders to manage and eradicate skeleton weed infestations on their properties and to prevent further spread within the State,” DPIRD program manager Martin Atwell said. The management guide covers identification of the weed and methods of elimination. “It now includes a full list of trade names of products available for skeleton weed control.” Mr Atwell said.
