Recent Advances in Weed Science

In 2014, we published the book Recent Advances in Weed Management . This new book discusses recent developments in weed science, including future challenges and opportunities in weed science, herbicide residue issues, harvest weed seed control practices, regenartive agriculture, site-specific weed management, nanoherbicides,  and the role of molecular biology in weed management. 
Recent Advances in Weed Science is generously supplemented with illustrations and tables. This should be an essential book for students taking introductory courses in weed science as well as a reference source for agricultural advisors, county agents, extension specialists, and professionals throughout the agrochemical industry.
