Non-selective herbicides will kill any plant because they act on processes that happen in all plants. Selective herbicides kill only certain plants because they act on processes that happen in only those types of plants. Herbicides that can be used on a lawn will selectively kill annual grasses...
A broad-spectrum herbicide used in a wide range of cropping, utility and industrial situations to for broad-spectrum control of weeds and grasses.Herbicide Glyphosate that may be applied preplant or preemergence to over 150 crops for control of annual and perennial w...
broadleaf and grass weeds, it finds application in most of the vegetation types and is a preferred alternative to selective herbicides. Additionally, with the introduction of GM crops that have herbicide tolerance, the demand for non-selective herbicides is projected to increase during the forecast ...
Dear EarthTalk: What effects do fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides used on residential lawns or on farms have on nearby water bodies like rivers, streams or even the ocean for those of us who live near the shore? With the advent of the so-called Green Revolution in the second half of ...

assist turfgrass managers with goosegrass management decisions in the field. To that end, we hypothesized that environmental factors such as moisture stress, air temperature, and evaporative demand affect the efficacy of several herbicides used for postemergence goosegrass in turfgrass, particularly ...
used to prevent pre and post-emergence broadleaf weeds in crops such as maize and sugarcane and on turf, such as golf courses and residential lawns. 2,4-D common systemic herbicide used in the control of broadleaf weeds. It is one of the most widely used herbicides in the world triclop...
stated that herbicides were not used during the milling process. Farmers use herbicides for certain grains before harvesting, causing the food items to contain residues; hence, the residue issue was present when the crop was harvested. This restricts the use of herbicides, in turn, their safeners...
In this study of lawns in suburban Springfield, Mass., she and Milam found that "spontaneous lawn flowers could be viewed as supplemental floral resources and support pollinators, thereby enhancing the value of urban green spaces." Details appear in the current issue ofAnnals of the Entomological...
In general, any conventional postemergence method of application can be used, including common dusting or spraying equipment. The amount of active ingredient which is effective in producing the desired result, be it herbicidal or growth-regulating, depends on the nature of the plant species to be...
