Why ragwort is a problem in Navan
On Navan properties, ragwort poisonous to horses and cattle, and liver damage accumulates whether the plant is grazed fresh or baled into hay. In Navan, Japanese knotweed and Himalayan balsam spread along the River Boyne and its tributaries, where floods and riverbank works carry rhizome fragments downstream. Verges and green spaces around River Blackwater and Athlumney Castle, along with new housing on the edge of town towards Johnstown and Kells, are where we most often find established stands.
