Toxic Weeds Alert

Reports of toxic weeds

The recent rainfall has increased the number of reports of toxic weeds springing up in summer pastures and stubbles. Although many weeds are safe to graze, some of the more common summer weeds may be toxic to livestock.

Keep an eye out for the following toxic weeds

Hairy Panic toxic weed in pasture Heliotrope toxic weed in pasture Caltrop toxic weed in pasture Goosefoot toxic weed in pasture

Symptoms of toxicosis

Photosensitisation, jaundice, swelling of the head, jaw, and eyes, and weight loss are all visible signs of plant toxicosis. These symptoms generally stem from a dysfunctional and damaged liver that can have long-term consequences for animal health, production, and welfare.
