A Management Guide for Invasive Plants in Southern Forests

Only recently has the extent of invasive plant occupation in the Southern United States and elsewhere in the world been realized.  Forest, preserve, right-of-way managers, and landowners need to act fast to stop the rapid encroachment of nonnative invasive plants, eradicate infestations, and restore native communities. Prevention, management, and strategies for control of nonnative plants of the Southeast area ddressed in this book.  The objective of this book is to provide useful information on current management strategies and procedures for 56 recognized plants that have invaded forests, natural areas, pastures, rights-of-way, orchards, grasslands, and the westlands of the Eastern United States.  This hands-on resource also covers the principles of invasion and how we can organize, plan, and enact prevention and management programs.
