PRIORITY DECLARED WEEDS
Bathurst Burr and Onion Weed are the GNRBA priority weeds. These weeds spread quickly by a variety of means, outcompete native vegetation and reduce the productive grazing capacity of pastoral lands. With grant assistance from State NRM, Rangelands NRM and local Shires, the GNRBA have undertaken successful and ongoing success with it’s weed management programs.
The GNRBA conducts numerous declared weed spraying activities utilising a qualified LPMT weed spraying contractor in partnership with external funding bodies (eg shires and grants). The GNRBA also supports land holders with herbicide reimbursement for widespread weed control.
Weedscan for Invasive Species
Can’t identify a weed? Now you can use WeedScan to see if you need to take action.
WeedScan is powered by a CSIRO AI identification model trained on more than 120,000 weed images and tested across Australia by scientists, farmers, community groups, agronomists, rangers, weeds and natural resource management officers. It’s an identification, recording and alert system for over 450 priority and other weeds, backed by the latest management information to support cooperative weeds action Australia-wide. Common garden weeds are not a focus of the WeedScan app.
