Reduce the physical movement of seed and propagules by inspections and quarantines. Create awareness to build motivated coalitions. Map important weeds for a living inventory. Plan who will do what, where, when, and how. Keep a record of what, where, when, and how treatments are applied.
Monitor results to work smarter next year.
Tell the story for those who pay the bills. Coordinate your weed management with neighboring coalitions and states. As a society, we throw money at problems only after they are so far gone that productive results are not achievable. Applying triage early is the only real opportunity to prevent a detrimental change in vegetation. If not the ecological processes may be so far along that the opportunity for prevention is long past.
