The necessity for a review of current weed control strategies in light of public concerns about sustainable food production, human and environmental protection, and the evolution of herbicide-resistant weeds is discussed in this book.

The growing concerns surrounding sustainable food production, the imperative for human and environmental protection, and the emergence of herbicide-resistant weeds underscore the urgent need for a comprehensive reassessment of current weed control strategies. Achieving sustainable weed control necessitates a multifaceted approach that takes into account the specific characteristics of each crop and the weeds that pose threats to its growth. This comprehensive handbook will serve as an invaluable resource for scholars, growers, consultants, researchers, and all stakeholders involved in arable, row, cash, vegetable, orchard, or grassland-based production systems.

What sets this book apart is its balanced coverage of herbicide effects on humans and the environment in relation to the most effective weed control practices across the world's major cropping systems. Furthermore, it amalgamates and discusses the most appropriate, judicious, and suitable weed control strategies for a diverse range of crops. By reviewing the available information and proposing optimal solutions, this handbook aims to bridge the gap between feasibility and excellence in weed management.

The significance of sustainable weed control cannot be overstated, as it plays a pivotal role in ensuring food security, preserving biodiversity, and maintaining the ecological balance of agricultural ecosystems. By adopting an integrated approach that considers the specific needs of each crop and the dynamics of weed populations, we can develop effective and long-lasting weed control strategies that minimize the negative impacts on human health, the environment, and the long-term sustainability of agricultural practices.
