Edited by Robert E L Naylor. This definitive reference book on weed management has been rewritten by a team of crop protection specialists. It takes account of new weed management practices across all crops and updates the 8th edition of the Weed Control Handbook (1990).

The change in title reflects the changing emphasis on producing crops in a sustainable manner and the new weed challenges now presenting themselves to today's scientists.

The book follows a progression from the biology of weeds through the underpinning science and technology relating to herbicides, the principles of weed management techniques and concludes with a set of case studies describing various management options.
