Glyphosate policy - Cal-IPC released a policy supporting the use of glyphosate-based herbicides for invasive plant management, developed by our Policy Task Force and Science Advisory Committee.
New website - Cal-IPC "soft" launched a new website. We will continue to add and organize resources over the winter months. The back-end database will help users better access resources from 25 years of Symposia and newsletters.
"Watch" plants - Cal-IPC added 80+ plants to the Inventory under a new "Watch" category. These species are found in California natural areas (with a few exceptions) and have been assessed as high-risk for future invasiveness. Land managers should keep an eye out for signs of spread or impacts.
