Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-Chemical Weed Control is the first book to present an overview of plant crop protection against non-food plants using non-chemical means. Plants growing wild—particularly unwanted plants found in cultivated ground to the exclusion of the desired crop—have been treated with herbicides and chemical treatments in the past. As concern over environmental, food and consumer safety increases, research has turned to alternatives, including the use of cover crops, thermal treatments and biotechnology to reduce and eliminate unwanted plants. This book provides insight into existing and emerging alternative crop protection methods and includes lessons learned from past methodologies. As crop production resources decline while consumer concerns over safety increase, the effective control of weeds is imperative to insure the maximum possible levels of soil, sunlight and nutrients reach the crop plants. Allows reader to identify the most appropriate solution based on their individual use or case Provides researchers, students and growers with current concepts regarding the use of modern, environment-friendly weed control techniques Presents methods of weed management—an important part of integrated weed management in the future Exploits the knowledge gained from past sustainable weed management efforts

Among the variety of books on lawn and garden, it has been impossible to find one that combines a concise strategy and actionable tactics with clear photographs of the weeds that are causing your lawn care problems. That gap has now been filled. How do you come up with a schedule for lawn feeding? When do you apply feedings to your lawn? What do forsythias have to do with anything? Do pre-emergent applications only apply to crabgrass? Is your lawn supposed to be a pleasure? or a master? These are some of the questions addressed and answered in a short, targeted text of the NC WEED KILLER's strategy for lawn care and weed control. Then there are 31 full color close-up photographs in the Rogue's Gallery of common weeds. Knowing what you are up against allows you to pick the best strategy and target the best weed control herbicide. Luckily, landing in the 7c zone of North Carolina, the NC WEED KILLER has been able to document the weeds that have been creating problems from New York to Georgia, from North Carolina to The Pacific Northwest. And, he has been able to work out the best ways to combat those weeds- and win! With the books available made so large to attract publishers, and so complex that there is too much information, the home gardener has been left without clear guidelines and a concise strategy. With hardcover volumes so large and with those little web site thumbnail pictures on your computer, getting the information out into the garden for good side by side comparison has been difficult, if even possible. Pick up your 8 x 8 A Photo Handbook to Weeds... and head for the yard! A simple plan, portable information, and actions that aren't going to rob all your time and money. You are looking at the answer you have been looking for. Good reading - and Good Successful Gardening!

Book Synopsis Managing Turfgrass Pests, Second Edition by : Thomas L. Watschke
Download or read book Managing Turfgrass Pests, Second Edition written by Thomas L. Watschke and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by three of the top professionals in the turfgrass field, Managing Turfgrass Pests, Second Edition brings together hundreds of solutions and best practices to help you manage turfgrass weeds, diseases, and insects more effectively. Since the publication of the bestselling first edition, advances in pest-resistant turfgrass cultivars and pest control products have led to significant changes in the ways pests are managed. This revised and updated second edition reinforces those management tactics that are still relevant and covers new approaches that have been introduced since the first edition. The book discusses the concept of integrated pest management, incorporating cultural, biological, and chemical control measures. In particular, the authors emphasize the philosophy of minimizing pests through well-defined and well-implemented cultural systems. Rather than simply relying on a pesticide solution for control, they explain how to fine-tune cultural practices to better address the question of why the pest is present in the first place. Once these cultural practices are in place, any pesticide that is still required will be much more effective at controlling the pest. New in This Edition Revised and updated descriptions of economically important turfgrass pests Revised and updated cultural approaches to turfgrass pest management Revised and updated biological methods of turfgrass pest management Revised and updated chemical control of turfgrass pests More than 200 new color illustrations Packed with photographs, this full-color book provides updated information on best practices and control measures for turfgrass pest management. It also explains how to integrate various management strategies to ensure quality and functional turf. Throughout, the authors offer practical recommendations to help you optimize the competitiveness of your turfgrass against the pests that inevitably become part of any ecosystem.
Download or read book Lawn People written by Paul Robbins and published by Temple University Press. This book was released on 2007-06-15 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For some people, their lawn is a source of pride, and for others, caring for their lawn is a chore. Yet for an increasing number of people, turf care is a cause of ecological anxiety. In Lawn People, author Paul Robbins, asks, "How did the needs of the grass come to be my own?" In his goal to get a clearer picture of why people and grasses do what they do, Robbins interviews homeowners about their lawns, and uses national surveys, analysis from aerial photographs, and economic data to determine what people really feel about-and how they treat-their lawns. Lawn People places the lawn in its ecological, economic, and social context. Robbins considers the attention we pay our turfgrass-the chemicals we use to grow lawns, the hazards of turf care to our urban ecology, and its potential impact on water quality and household health. He also shows how the ecology of cities creates certain kinds of citizens, deftly contrasting man's control of the lawn with the lawn's control of man. Lawn People provides an intriguing examination of nature's influence on landscape management and on the ecosystem.
