Key Technologies and Prospects of Laser Weeding Robots [PDF]
[Significance] Grass damage in farmland seriously restricts the quality and yield of crop planting and production, and promotes the occurrence of pests and diseases. Weed control is a necessary measure for high yield and high quality of crops. Currently,

Mechanical control of Cirsium arvense in organic farming [PDF]
Infestation with Cirsium arvense in organic cropping is an increasing problem in many parts of Europe. A very expansive root system and the ability to form new aerial shoots from root buds facilitate formation of dense patches only a few years after ...

Evaluation of macrophyte control in 38 Florida lakes using triploid grass carp [PDF]
Florida’s large number of shallow lakes, warm climate and long growing season have contributed to the development of excessive growths of aquatic macrophytes that have seriously interfered with many water use activities.

Non-inversion tillage in organic arable cropping [PDF]
The opportunities for using an non-inversion tillage (NI) approach in organic systems has not been well investigated by research and what research has been done has not perhaps been sufficiently long-term.

Herbaceous Filter Strips in Agroecosystems: Implications for Ground Beetle (Coleoptera: Carabidae) Conservation and Invertebrate Weed Seed Predation [PDF]
A 9.3-ha crop field flanked by two filter strips was selected to: 1) assess carabid beetle activity-density and community composition and 2) assess post-dispersal weed seed predation by invertebrates in these habitats.
