BILLINGS, Montana (AP) Someday soon, man's best friend could also be one of his biggest allies in the fight against noxious weeds. That's the hope of researchers like Kim Goodwin, who are studying whether dogs can be trained to detect the prolific and problematic spotted knapweed the same way they can be trained to sniff out drugs and bombs. Goodwin, a weed prevention coordinator at Montana State University at Bozeman, said she got the idea for putting dogs to work by seeing how dogs have been used at airports, mail facilities and ports of entry to search for everything from illegal drugs and bombs to prohibited agricultural products. "I thought maybe dogs could do the same thing across landscapes because we have a problem with invasive plants spreading," she said. "To be most effective with weeds spreading, we have to detect them early."

California Noxious Weed Control Projects Inventory - Information Center For The A combined government/private/nonprofit effort to establish a database, accessible through the Internet, containing information on noxious weed control in California. This information will further the practice and science of noxious weed control and assist agencies and practitioners doing noxious weed control throughout the state. http://endeavor.des.ucdavis.edu/weeds/

CALWEED DATABASE California Noxious Weed Control Projects Inventory The projects in the Calweed Database have been incorportated into the Natural Resource Projects Inventory (NRPI). If you wish to search for species or projects, please go to the NRPI home page If you wish to add projects, please use the new NPRI Online Form About the Calweed Database The California Interagency Noxious Weed Coordinating Committee is a group of sixteen State and Federal agencies meeting quarterly, in conjunction with stakeholders, to coordinate activities with respect to noxious weed control. A central project of the group has been to create an Internet accessible database, which acts as a clearing-house for noxious weed control projects in California. The database contains information on who is controlling which noxious weeds in California and what methods they are using. This information is searchable by keywords. The California Noxious Weed Control Projects Inventory (CNWCPI) is a a part of the more comprehensive Natural Resource Projects Inventory (NRPI) . In addtion to the Noxious Weeds Project, NRPI also includes the
