Organic Weed Management
This section covers a wide variety of topics. Some are directly oriented toward management, whereas others are more general explanations of the biology of weeds or of particular types of weeds. Understanding these more general topics will assist you in managing weeds that are not specifically treated in the Major Weeds section, and assist you in developing strategies for controlling several species of weeds at once. Detailed documentation of most statements made in this section can be found the book "Ecological Management of Agricultural Weeds" by Liebman, M., C. L. Mohler and C. P. Staver. Cambridge University Press: New York, 2001. The remaining statements are mostly based on the personal experience of Chuck Mohler and many discussions with organic farmers and other researchers.
