Why Australia should farm cactus, not be at war with it

Today I focus’s an article I read about how the Australian government and farmers are combating cacti. this is an issue they have dealt with in 3 different centuries and I discuss how I believe they are approaching the problem from the wrong angle. cactus has the potential to be a giant cash crop in Australia but they choose to wage a loosing war poisoning their soil, environment and even people by how they manage cacti as an invasive species. Interesting stuff because my view is cactus is a huge help to ecosystems , while they see it as a pest.
