Why Control Noxious Weeds in Baker County?
Noxious weeds are being found in ever-increasing numbers throughout Baker County. The spread of noxious weeds signal the potential decline of entire plant communities: they severely impact the beauty and plant diversity of occupied environments and cause widespread economic impact. These alien invasive weeds are considered one of the most serious natural resource and economic issues facing Baker County. Without major increased management efforts, weeds will continue to spread across the area and degrade productive lands that are Baker County’s heritage. We at the Baker County Weed Department subscribe whole-heartedly to the adage: “We don’t inherit the land from our ancestors, we borrow it from our children.
