Eragrostis curvula [Schrad. Nees] (African Lovegrass) is an invasive C 4 perennial grass that threatens the multifunctionality of agricultural landscapes in Australia, including agricultural productivity and biodiversity (Firn, 2009;Godfree et al., 2017). It is often described as an undesirable and moderately palatable species that is commonly found on lighter sandy soils along coastal areas within Australia; however, it can also be found further inland if conditions are suitable (Godfree et al., 2017;Roberts et al., 2021). When established, E. curvula can form dense swards that increase its competitiveness towards other species (Firn, 2009;Firn et al., 2010b;Johnston, 1989;Muyt, 2001). Further, research has shown that E. curvula has a strong allelopathic potential which may explain its dominance in grasslands (Ghebrehiwot et al., 2013). These swards can also lead to agricultural loss, a decline in co-occurring native species diversity and an increase in fire frequency and intensity, all of which can result in economic and environmental degradation of
