Weed fast facts
Weed fast facts is an information guide on 15 different common pasture weeds to support management decisions.
The purpose of Weed fast facts is to:
• help you understand how weeds grow
• identify the problems weeds cause
• outline weeds’ benefits in terms of their contribution to feed available for grazing
• provide facts on interventions and when tactics should be implemented.
Information on each weed is presented in three wheels: growth, grazing value, and interventions. The wheels are based around a monthly calendar, which represents the cyclical nature of plant growth.
