A New Approach to Woody Invasive Species Control: Leveraging Native Warm-Season Grass Cover Crops
As we head into the fall and winter season, tackling invasive brush in the Midwest remains top of mind. Our goal is to find effective, efficient, and environmentally sustainable solutions to control invasives, and our latest approach leverages native grasses for a natural and cost-effective solution.
Moving Beyond Traditional Brush Control
The traditional method of controlling invasive brush often involves heavy reliance on herbicides and expensive equipment and human efforts. So when you make that investment you want it to be a durable long lasting solution. While herbicides can be effective, if we can use less of them, our environment will be better off for it.
Reducing our dependence on herbicides not only saves costs but also protects native ecosystems. Enter native warm-season grass cover crops as a nature-driven alternative that allows for sustainable brush control while minimizing the need for chemicals.
