| Résumé : |
"Himalayan Balsam is a highly invasive n on - native species that creates dense stands of vegetation to outcompete native flora particularly on riverbanks and in damp areas. The plant is an annual and following winter dieback it leaves fragmented habitat s and river banks vulnerable to accelerated erosion which can then lead to the sedimentation of river gravels. This has serious consequence s for riparian/freshwater ecosystem functioning and poses a risk to the integrity of the Clun Special Area of Conservation (SAC) and the habitat of the qualifying species ; the critically endangered freshwater p earl mussel . A key reason for the spread of Himalayan balsam in the Clun catchment is the lack of strategy and the local coordination necessary to direct or lead on Himalayan balsam (or any other invasive weeds). If there is to be prevention, detection and long - term control of Himalayan balsam in the catchment, effective leadership and coordination will be essential.
This Strategy therefore emphasises the need for effective coordination and partnership working with stakeholders and members of the public. The key objectives of this Strategy are to: 1. Prevent Himalayan balsam establishing in areas currently unaffected 2. Detect and encourage reporting of Himalayan balsam 3. Reverse the spread at sites currently affected thereby reducing its harmful impact on the Clun Special Area of Conservation (SAC)." (source : auteurs) |
