CWMA Live Webinar: Prioritizing Effort - Make Every Penny Count
Speaker:
Terri Hogan, NPS Invasive Plant Program Manager
Synopsis:
Working to manage invasive plant infestations poses many challenges. Prioritizing and leveraging our efforts improves our chances of success. Identifying management strategies on which to focus such as prevention and early detection and rapid response, taking advantage opportunities to collaborate to leverage our efforts, and making use of accessible online tools all improve our effectiveness and efficiency. I will briefly discuss a range of management strategies, potential collaborators managing or developing resources to support management of invasive plants, and some online tools available or being developed to facilitate invasive plant management.
