Herbicide Resistance in Ryegrass: Stochastic Evaluation of Management Strategies [PDF]
Annual Ryegrass is a significant weed in cereal production in Western Australia. Herbicide resistance is increasing and is a major concern to producers. Long-term, field scale trials are being conducted on a number of sites in the state.

Horseweed (Marestail) Resistance [PDF]
Horseweed has documented resistance to EPSPS inhibitors, PSII inhibitors, ALS inhibitors, and PSI inhibitor (Heap, 2018). Glyphosate resistant horseweed moves the herbicide into a vacuole preventing the herbicide from damaging the plant (Ge, 2010).

Reconciling Techno-simplicity and Eco-complexity for future food security [PDF]
Ecological intensification has been proposed as a paradigm for ensuring global food security while preserving biodiversity and ecosystem integrity. Ecologicalintensification was originally coined to promote precise site-specific farming practices aimed ...

Seeds of Doubt: North American farmers' experiences of GM crops [PDF]
The picture the biotechnology industry has painted of GM crops in North America is one of unqualified success, after six years of commercial growing. The objective of this report was to assess whether this image is accurate and if not what problems have ...

Managing Herbicide-resistant Blackgrass (Alopecurus Myosuroides): Theory and Practice
Blackgrass is the most important herbicide-resistant weed in Europe, occurring in 10 countries. Enhanced metabolism is the most common mechanism, conferring partial resistance to a wide range of herbicides, but acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACCase) target-site resistance also occurs widely.

A review of knowledge of the potential impacts of GMOs on organic agriculture [PDF]
The organic movement believes that organic agriculture, by its nature, cannot involve the use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). This has been incorporated into EU regulations which state that there is no place in organic agriculture for GMOs ...
