Abstract

A rapid increase in the number of herbicides and herbicide mixtures registered for use in row crops has made herbicide selection difficult. WEEDS is a computer program that enables a weed management expert to build a list of recommended herbicides or herbicide mixtures based upon weed species, soil texture, and soil organic matter content. An example is given for soybeans.
