Gamba grass was imported into Queensland as a pasture grass in 1942, but was not planted on a large scale until about 1983. Gamba grass is a useful cattle feed in parts of far north Queensland, but also has significant negative impacts, including replacing native plants and increasing fire risk.", "summary": "Map layer extracted from Biosecurity Queensland pest distribution survey displaying distribution of individual invasive weed species.", "title": "Gamba grass", "tags": [ "weeds", "pests" ], "type": "", "typeKeywords": [], "thumbnail": "", "url": "", "minScale": 0, "maxScale": 0, "spatialReference": "", "accessInformation": "© State of Queensland (Department of Agriculture and Fisheries), 2023", "licenseInfo": "" }
