Why ragwort is a problem in Ammanford
On Ammanford properties, ragwort poisonous to horses and cattle, and liver damage accumulates whether the plant is grazed fresh or baled into hay. Ammanford sits on the River Amman at the western edge of the South Wales coalfield, where former colliery tips and disused railway beds keep knotweed active along the Amman and Loughor corridors.
