Why ragwort is a problem in Bracknell
On Bracknell properties, ragwort poisonous to horses and cattle, and liver damage accumulates whether the plant is grazed fresh or baled into hay. Bracknell's post-war new town construction disturbed extensive heathland and gravel deposits, and this ground, along with the old railway line towards Wokingham, has allowed knotweed to spread readily.
