weed management
Weed management involves controlling unwanted plants to protect crops, gardens, or landscapes. It includes methods like pulling weeds by hand, using tools, or applying herbicides (chemical weed killers). Cultural practices such as crop rotation, proper planting timing, and maintaining healthy soil can also reduce weed growth. Mulching and mowing help suppress weeds and prevent their spread. An integrated approach combining these strategies is most effective, reducing weed competition, improving plant health, and minimizing environmental impact. Regular monitoring and timely action are key to maintaining control and promoting healthy, productive land.
