Why should I be concerned about the spread of noxious weed seeds through non-certified forage/straw products?
Noxious weeds displace native plants species, diminish the beauty of the landscape and recreation experience, decrease wildlife habitat and ecosystem bio-diversity, and increase soil erosion rates, sending sediment into streams. Once a noxious weed species is widely distributed it is very difficult to remove it, making their effect on the environment permanent. For more information about Noxious Weeds go to our home page.
