- W930731663 abstract "Biological control has been utilised in Australia against some 60 weed species for over 90 years. During this time we have enjoyed many successes including the spectacular control of Opuntia species and, through diligent host testing, have an excellent safety record. While we stand here and pat ourselves on the back, the general community has a quite different perception. The cane toad’s introduction and devastating effects on biodiversity across north-eastern Australia is often quoted as an example of “biological control gone wrong”, and serves as a constant source of mistrust amongst the general community. High hopes held by desperate farmers for the eradication of rabbits by the myxomatosis virus has contributed to a belief that biological control does not work. In our attempts to dispel such myths we have tended to over-sell the potential of biological control, using the prickly pear story as a classic example. As such, the Australian community’s perception of biological control ranges from fear about its safety to complete faith that biological control is the answer to all pest problems. The community has an important role to play in biological control. Countless examples worldwide have proven that community participation in the release of biological control agents speeds up the process of their establishment. Moreover, community support is critical in providing political pressure for continuing government and industry funding. This can be achieved only through effective communication. This paper discusses the various community education, awareness and technology transfer programs undertaken by the Cooperative Research Centre (CRC) for Weed Management Systems since 1995, and outlines strategies for future activities of the current CRC for Australian Weed Management." @default.
