Broom Management Manual: Current management and control options for Scotch (Cytisus scoparius), Montpellier (Genista monspessulana) and flax-leaf (G. linifolia) brooms in Australia
Broom species are serious weeds of Australia's environment and primary production, including pastoral and forestry operations. The Brooms Strategic Plan 2012-2017 (AWC 2012) is a national plan developed under the Australian Weeds Strategy as part of the Weeds of National Significance initiative. Nationally coordinated implementation of the Broom Plan will allow for better protection of priority assets by providing tools and information, identifying management priorities and fostering partnerships that lead to more strategic, collaborative management.
