The role of weeds in supporting biological diversity within crop fields*

E. J. P. Marshall, V. K. Brown, N. D. Boatman et al. · 1 Apr 2003

Summary Weeds are major constraints on crop production, yet as part of the primary producers within farming systems, they may be important components of the agroecosystem. Using published literature, the role of weeds in arable systems for other above‐ground trophic levels are examined. In the UK, there is evidence that weed flora have changed over…

Non‐chemical weed management in organic farming systems

W Bond, A. Grundy · 17 Oct 2001

Concern about potential increases in weed populations without the use of herbicides has limited the uptake of organic farming. However, as both public demands for organic produce and the profile of organic farming have increased in recent years, so too has the range of weed control options. Progress in cultural methods of weed control has…

Integration of soil, crop and weed management in low‐external‐input farming systems

Matt Liebman, Adam S. Davis · 1 Feb 2000

Greater adoption and refinement of low‐external‐input (LEI) farming systems have been proposed as ways to ameliorate economic, environmental and health problems associated with conventional farming systems. Organic soil amendments and crop diversification are basic components of LEI systems. Weed scientists can improve the use of these practices for weed management by improving knowledge of four…

Natural products as sources of herbicides: current status and future trends

Duke, Duke, Dayan et al. · 1 Feb 2000

Although natural product‐based discovery strategies have not been as successful for herbicides as for other pesticides or pharmaceuticals, there have been some notable successes. Phosphinothricin, the biosynthetic version of glufosinate, and bialaphos are phytotoxic microbial products that have yielded commercial herbicides. Cinmethylin, a herbicidal analogue of cineole, has been sold in Europe and Asia. The…

Weed management in organic agriculture: are we addressing the right issues?

Paolo Bàrberi · 1 Jun 2002

Summary Despite the serious threat which weeds offer to organic crop production, relatively little attention has so far been paid to research on weed management in organic agriculture, an issue that is often approached from a reductionist perspective. This paper aims to outline why and how this problem should instead be tackled from a system…
