DESCRIPTION
Weeds are the pioneer plants of disturbed soils and can adversely affect the use, economic value, and aesthetic aspect of the lands and waters they infest. Knowledge of the major mechanisms of weed survival is essential for developing effective methods of weed control to maximize the use and value of the environment. This well-researched text expounds on the interrelationships between weed species and the environment and discusses weed-control programs. The first part of the book addresses weed control principles, including weed ecology, conservation tillage, and weed resistance and transgenic crop tolerance. The remaining chapters delve into herbicide families and weed control in selected crops.
