IS GETTING RID OF PROSOPIS JULIFLORA THE RIGHT SOLUTIONS?
In the United States, attempts to eliminate the tree using herbicides and mechanical removal haven’t been very successful. The same challenges have been faced in Mexico, Argentina, and Sudan, among other countries. 1/3

Once this tree takes root, it's very hard to completely remove.Even in areas where it has been cleared,its seeds can still sprout, and it grows back quickly. Over the past 50 years, millions of dollars have been spent trying to control it, but no cheap solution has been found.2/3
