CAREX Toolbox Handout 2 - Aquatic weeds

Through the CAREX project, we have tested a series of practical tools, and developed solutions and approaches to address aquatic weed, sediment, and nutrient management issues in agricultural waterways in lowland Canterbury. We have developed a set of steps and toolboxes, underpinned by science, which can be applied by farmers, landowners and stakeholders to facilitate rehabilitation and improve agricultural waterway health.This handout in the second in a series, which focuses on tools to manage and control aquatic weeds.Suggested citation: Collins, K.E., Hogsden, K.L., Febria, C.M., Devlin, H.S., Goeller, B.C, Harding, J.S., and A.M.
