botanical
component of pest control, stopping weeds from reaching a mature stage of
growth when they could be harmful to domesticated plants and livestock by
physical and chemical methods. In order to reduce weed growth, many "weed
control" strategies have been developed in order to contain the growth and
spread of weeds.
The most basic is ploughing which cuts the roots of annual weeds. Today,
chemical weed killers known as herbicides are widely used. |

The presence of weeds does not necessarily mean that they are
competing with a crop, especially during the early stages of growth
when each plant can find the resources it requires without interfering
with the others. However, as the seedlings’ size increases, their root
systems will spread as they each begin to require greater amounts of
water and nutrients. Estimates suggest that weed and crop can co-exist
harmoniously for around three weeks, therefore it is important that
weeds are removed early on in order to prevent competition occurring.
Weed competition can have quite dramatic effects on crop growth. |
