Encyclopaedia of Weeds and Weed Science Technology, Identification, Measures and Control (Manual of Weed Ecology) e-bog

Weeds and Science Technology addresses topics that include management of weeds, agricultural, aquatic, Technology for integrated weed management and weed use tools. The technological revolutions in weed science are characterized by the use of chemical weed control methods. A weed generally implies a plant that is considered by the user of the term to be a nuisance, and normally occurring disturbed environments include dunes and other windswept areas with shifting soil alluvial flood plains, river banks and deltas, and areas that are often burned Since human agricultural practices often mimic these natural environments where weedy species have evolved, weeds have adapted to grow and proliferate in human-disturbed areas such as agricultural fields, lawns, roadsides, and construction sites the weedy nature of these species often gives them an advantage over more desirable crop species because they often grow quickly and reproduce quickly, have seeds that persist in the soil seed bank for many years of have short-life spans with multiple generations in the same growing season. It is intended that the book will prove to be useful in not only teaching the weed science courses but also in revamping and development of need-course curriculum.
