Economics of Invasive SpeciesA new publication from Oregon Sea Grant, The Economics of Invasive Species, examines the costs associated with invasive species and shows how economics can help us understand the invasive species problem and the costs and benefits of different control measures. This publication is intended for members of the public, government agencies, industry, and nongovernmental organizations who are interested in enhancing their education about or increasing their involvement in preventing, eradicating, and controlling invasive species.
