Invasive Alien Species Strategy

Invasive Alien Species (IAS) are animals and plants that are introduced accidentally or deliberately into a natural environment where they are not normally found, with partially serious negative consequences for their new environment. Initial study (University of Liege) into the awareness of IAS in the company, and field study to determine the extent of the problem and which are the most problematic species.
