A practical guide for growers, consultants, and researchers working to reduce weed pressure while slowing herbicide resistance. This book focuses on broadacre farming systems where long-term control depends on more than spray programs alone. It brings together seed destruction, biological weed control, cultural practices, and resistance management into one clear framework for field use.

The chapters move from core weed biology and resistance mechanisms to equipment-based seed destruction, crop competition strategies, and biological control options. Readers will find guidance on how weed life cycles shape timing decisions, how repeated herbicide use drives selection pressure, and how to build better rotations that protect both yield and chemistry.

What the book covers
  • Weed impact mills, how they work, when they are effective, and what field conditions matter most.
  • Seed bank reduction, using targeted destruction and crop management to reduce future weed pressure.
  • Herbicide resistance, including mode-of-action rotation, cross resistance, and multiple resistance.
  • Integrated weed control, combining non-chemical tactics with herbicide programs for stronger outcomes.
  • Monitoring and diagnosis, with practical methods for scouting, mapping, testing, and interpreting resistance.
  • Operational discipline, including application quality, calibration, record keeping, and troubleshooting failures.

Rather than treating weed control as a one-season response, the book emphasizes planning across seasons. It explains how establishment practices, row spacing, residue handling, cover crops, and treatment sequencing can work together to reduce escapes and limit seed return. Field examples and case studies show how these ideas translate into winter cereals, summer crops, and mixed weed communities.

Useful for farmers, agronomists, and advisors, this title is especially relevant for anyone managing persistent weeds in broadacre systems where resistance risk is rising. It offers a grounded, operational approach to improving control efficacy while preserving herbicide options for the future.
