Noxious weeds are non-native plants that have become established or that may be introduced into the state. These weeds may render land unfit for agriculture, forestry, livestock, wildlife, or other beneficial uses. Noxious weeds are so designated by rule of the MT Department of Agriculture or as a District Noxious Weed by the Mineral County Weed Board. The Mineral County Weed Board has been actively treating and managing noxious weeds since 1949. Today, the Weed Board endeavors to provide an integrated approach to noxious weed management to benefit the people and natural resources of Mineral County. As such, the Weed Board strives to:

• Coordinate private, county, state and federal weed management
• Comply with existing weed control laws
• Reduce the influence of weeds on natural resources
• Accomplish weed control without significant adverse environmental effects
