Summary of Presentations

The introductory presentations confirmed that viable management options for hydrilla in Florida are changing. Use of Fluridone as a long-term control measure for hydrilla on large lakes is currently a much less viable and cost-effective option than it was in the 1990s, and non-target plant impacts are likely to be significant for lakes with Fluridone-tolerant hydrilla. New compounds are needed, and third-party registrations may be required to invoke the resources necessary to develop these compounds. Water regulation will continue to play an important role in management options for hydrilla.
