Why broad-leaved dock is a problem in Westport
On Westport properties, broad-leaved dock thick taproot survives cutting, each plant sheds thousands of long-lived seeds and grazing value drops sharply. In Westport, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the Carrowbeg River and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around Croagh Patrick and Great Western Greenway, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Newport and Louisburgh, are where we most often find established stands.
