'Streamlining search and destroy': development of a robust prioritisation framework for weed eradication using Hawkweed species

引进物种是对我们的生物多样性和农业的最大威胁之一，ARC的国家研究重点：保护澳大利亚就是明证。 该项目将通过开发指导具有成本效益的检测和反应的工具，提高澳大利亚保护自己免受入侵者侵害的能力。 我们的项目将对维多利亚和新南威尔士州的鹰草控制的规划和管理产生直接影响。 交付的框架将直接应用于澳大利亚国内外的许多其他杂草（以及与其他害虫和疾病的相关性）。

Introduced species are one of the greatest threats to our biodiversity and agriculture, as evidenced by the ARC’s National Research Priority: Safeguarding Australia. This project will advance Australia’s ability to protect itself from invaders by developing tools that guide cost-effective detection and response. Our project will have a direct effect on the planning and management of Hawkweed control in Victoria and New South Wales. The framework delivered will have direct application to numerous other weeds (and relevance to other pests and diseases) within and beyond Australia.
