In-Depth Information
As noted in the following chapters, many important research questions
remain to be answered. In addition, changes in educational modes and
government policies are required if ecological weed management is to be
implemented on a broad scale.None the less,we believe that knowledge about
ecological weed management and opportunities to apply that knowledge in
farm fields are sufficiently advanced to justify increased use and further devel-
opment of ecological management methods. We hope this topic provides the
reader with some of the information necessary to proceed.
