Potential Distribution of African feather grass (Pennisetum macrourum) in Victoria (Nox)

This map of the potential distribution of African feather grass has been produced from CLIMATEŽ modelling overlayed with:

Overlays used.

Land use:
Pasture irrigated and dryland

Rainfall:
Rainfall over 600 mm.

Broad vegetation types:
Grasslands; plains grassy woodlands; valley grassy forests; coastal grassy woodlands; riverine grassy woodlands; riparian forests; and swamp.
Colours indicate possibility of Pennisetum macrourum infesting these areas.
Red = Very High
Orange = High
Light Green = Medium
Dark Green = Likely

In the non-coloured areas the plant is unlikely to establish as the climate, soil or landuse is not presently suitable.
