Management Project - Coomalie Gamba Grass management
Introduced to the Top End from Africa for pasture, Gamba Grass invades a range of ecosystems but is particularly damaging in the savannah woodlands. Gamba Grass grows to 4 metres in height and forms dense stands that burn at incredibly high intensity – up to 10 times higher than native grasses -destroying the woodlands and riparian vegetation, turning the once diverse landscapes into grassland monocultures.
