[APWG] Cost-benefit analysis for alien invasives control

[Chang, David]

OK.  These should help:

 

http://www.weedcenter.org/textbook/1_kelly_impacts.html 

 

http://www.fao.org/docrep/006/j1583e/J1583E07.htm 

 

Actually, I googled "cost benefit invasive weed natural habitat" and
culled these two links from the first page of results.

Thanks for the link.

	 

The linked article is concerned with invasives generally, not just alien
invasives.  I'm trying to locate something that teases out the economic
impact of the alien portion of invasives.  I would then like to find out
a bit more about feasible control programs.  I would probably be
happiest with one good economic analysis of an effort to control ONE
alien invasive species (or ecological complex), especially one that did
NOT have a strong adverse effect on agriculture.

	Can anyone point me in the direction of studies that attempt to
quantify the short- and long-term economic benefit of feasible programs
for controlling alien invasive species ?
