Introduction of Exotic Plants

The introduction of exotic plants involves bringing plant species from one region to another where they are not naturally found. This can occur intentionally, such as for agriculture or decoration, or unintentionally, through global trade and travel. While some exotic plants adapt well and add diversity, others can become invasive, outcompeting native species, disrupting local ecosystems, and causing environmental issues. Proper management and understanding of these plants are essential to prevent ecological imbalance and protect native biodiversity.
