Abstract
E VERY country in the world has its poisonous plant problems, but in Western Australia we have more than our share.
Farmers in "Poison" districts can avoid serious stock losses if they can recognise dangerous poison plants, and have a knowledge of how the concentrations of toxic substances in these plants change with the seasons.
In this article, R. D. Royce, Officer in Charge of the Botany Branch, outlines the principles involved.
