Improving weed control
- Developing weed science
- Encouraging weed research
Description
Improving weed control involves implementing targeted measures to reduce the growth and spread of unwanted plants that compete with crops, degrade ecosystems, or hinder land use. Essential actions include timely mechanical removal, application of selective herbicides, crop rotation, and use of cover crops to suppress weeds. These strategies aim to enhance agricultural productivity, restore native habitats, and minimize economic losses by directly addressing weed proliferation and resistance, ensuring more sustainable and effective land management.
