Assessing the Threat of Elephant Grass (Pennisetum purpureum) in NATL Regions

Elephant Grass (Pennisetum purpureum) presents a potential threat to NATL areas, with its current status ranging from eradicated to threatening. Management strategies include routine monitoring and various eradication methods such as manual removal and herbicide application. The extent of infestation varies across NATL-west and NATL-east, highlighting the need for ongoing surveillance and effective control measures. Historical classifications of sites into legacy, old active, and new active help track the management of this invasive species effectively.
