"Nonindigenous plants and plant pests that find their way to the United States and become invasive often cause serious crop and timber losses. Millions of dollars are spent annually in attempts to control invasions with herbicides, pesticides, insecticides, and biological control agents. But the true cost of these invasions is incalculable. Damage to natural ecosystems, such as wetlands and prairies, is very difficult to estimate in economic terms.".
"Predicting Invasions of Nonindigenous Plants and Plant Pests examines this growing problem and offers recommendations for enhancing the science base in this field, thus improving and refining our ability to identify potential invaders before they arrive and predicting their impact on U.S. plant resources.".
"This detailed analysis will be of interest to policymakers, plant scientists, agricultural and forestry producers, horticulturalists, conservationists and public agencies concerned with managing natural resources and the impacts of invasive plant and plant pest species."--BOOK JACKET.
