Toolkit for invasive annual grass management

View the document.

The toolkit is comprised of three elements:

• A roadmap for invasive grass management in the West, with new best management practices for the identification, protection, and expansion of “core” areas – regions with relatively low, or no, annual grass invasion;
• Case studies highlighting the application of these practices in Idaho and Wyoming; and
• A new geospatial data layer (which uses analytical tools to compile existing federal data) to help state and local managers assess invasive annual grasses within their jurisdictions, while also offering opportunities to identify new cross-boundary collaborative projects.
