However, its inclusion on the National List of Invasive Species has the effect of banning its introduction into the wild and its cultivation or use as an ornamental plant, and owners of the lands where this species occurs are obliged to eradicate it (article 19, no. 1, paragraph e) of Decree-Law no. 92\/2019, of 10 July).<\/p>\n<p>On the island of Santa Maria, the SAACSMA team found that the plant was spread out in a carpet-like pattern and was very deep-rooted, making it difficult to remove it mechanically, having started it manually. In March, after the plant has rested and is at the most appropriate stage in its life cycle, it will be controlled more closely to prevent it from sprouting again.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/en\/news\/removal-of-the-invasive-species-pennisetum-villosum-on-santa-maria\/microsoftteams-image-545-2\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-8243\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-8243\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/MicrosoftTeams-image-545-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/MicrosoftTeams-image-545-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/MicrosoftTeams-image-545-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/MicrosoftTeams-image-545-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/MicrosoftTeams-image-545-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.lifeazoresnatura.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/MicrosoftTeams-image-545.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":8240,"template":"","class_list":["post-8247","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
