Abstract
Managing food production systems on a sustainable basis is one of the most critical challenges for the future of humanity. There is urgent need to create and use ecological knowledge translated into practical strategies of weed management. We then address for a reinforced and enlarged Ecological-based Weed Management EbWM backed up by related disciplines and approaches: Systems approach; Increased biodiversity in the system; Inclusion of the spatial scale: from the field to the landscape; Significant improvement in the objectives of crop breeding programs; Use of herbicides only based on dose-response technology; Calculation of pesticide load in each field.-- Provided by publisher.
