Abstract
Leafy spurge (Euphorbia esula L.), a perennial plant species native to Europe and Asia, has become a serious problem for ranchers and land managers in the Northwestern United States. Several biological agents were implemented to reduce the infestation of this invader. In our region about 65% of the infestation is controlled. Jeff is going to present his results and experiences on this still hot topic.
