Ecology and management of weeds in no-till in southern AustraliaPaperback, 28 September 2011

No-till systems have been widely adopted by farmers in Australia over the past many years to reduce soil erosion, improve soil physical and chemical properties, conserve soil moisture and save on fuel costs. These changes in tillage practices can have a major influence on the ecology and management of weeds. This book provides information on the seed biology of important Australian weed species and underpinning knowledge of their response to tillage systems. There is also information on the effect of no-till on weed seedling emergence, seed bank persistence and herbicide behaviour.
