| Tóm tắt: | The increased availability and acceptability of highly effective and selective synthetic herbicides in
the decades following World War II diverted the focus of weed researchers and managers away
from non-chemical weed management. Herbicides became the predominant option for weed
control, with the ecological and social consequences of herbicide use being ignored or
downplayed. An over-reliance on herbicide use led to the widespread development of herbicideresistant
weeds and concerns about potential negative effects on human health and the
environment.
The sustainability of our food production systems and the health and environmental
consequences of pesticide use are rapidly becoming important global issues. Organic farming is
increasing in popularity in many parts of the world due to an increasing demand for pesticide-free
food. Weeds pose a serious problem in organic farming. Several weed management options that
were once labelled ‘uneconomic’ or ‘impractical’, and their technology development practically
discontinued, are now being revisited. |
