Developer: Primary Industries and Regions South Australia
The free South Australian Weed Control app provides essential information about the control of weeds declared under legislation in South Australia.
The app includes:
- colour photographs and descriptions of the 139 declared plants to aid identification
- chemical and non-chemical control treatments for these weeds
- legislative provisions applying to the weeds in the user’s region
- links to state policies and further information on each declared plant
- information on the safe use of herbicides
The app presents information from the annual Weed Control Handbook for Declared Plants in South Australia.
App users can also:
- record the location of weeds via their phone GPS
- keep notes and a log of control activities
- phone or email regional resource officers to report weeds
- include photos in weed notifications and requests for advice
Information in the app is updated as chemical uses and plant declarations change.
The SA Weed Control app is produced by Biosecurity SA in partnership with regional authorities.
