good thought, but still i feel the rampancy/noxious classifications info
would be valuable, IF: more detailed info is given, on WHERE and IN WHAT WAY
- also need to know why they're 'noxious' - in Australia
> there are many declared noxious plants are not a problem other than

but exactly this is giving them an advantage in competing with the rest on
all habitually overgrazed paddocks (=80% of oz?) - so since it is
dreamlandish to say "lets just stop raising hoofy animals in australia to
get rid of this rampancy-problem" anyone intending to work with a plant that
has high potential to turn into an "obnoxious weed" on his neighbours
property should know about this.
>A noxious weed in one area can be
> an endangered native somewhere else.
which greatly supports the point of multiple entries, with the source of the
entry and the geografical area this refers to.
