Defeating the Weed Menace R&D: Ways forward in weeds research A short policy paper The ‘Defeating the Weed Menace’ program was a national program established by the Australian Government in 2004 to identify Australia’s most threatening weeds and to implement measures for their control.

Between 2004 and 2008 the Australian Government committed $44.4 million to Defeating the Weed Menace.
In May 2006, Land & Water Australia (LWA) was contracted by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry (DAFF) to manage a research and development (R&D) component of the Defeating the Weed Menace program (DWM) on behalf of the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and the Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts (DEWHA).
