Reducing the water weed risk - How government and industry can contribute to a safer trade
In 2004, Nursery & Garden Industry Australia (NGIA) joined the National Aquatic Weeds Management Group (NAWMG) to help implement a range of initiatives designed to tackle the issue of aquatic weeds. One such project is a weed risk assessment of water plants sold in aquariums and nurseries. This project aims to identify future water weed threats and remove such plants from sale.
