Why ragwort is a problem in Cwmbran
On Cwmbran properties, ragwort poisonous to horses and cattle, and liver damage accumulates whether the plant is grazed fresh or baled into hay. Cwmbran's new-town construction exposed fresh disturbed ground across the Afon Lwyd valley, and knotweed quickly colonised the canal and railway corridors that run through the town's edges.
