Extract

Integrated weed management (IWM) became an accepted, and frequently used, term by weed scientists in the early 1970's. It has been argued by some that IWM is simply new terminology for a system that was previously called “weed control”. In any event, the acceptance of the “management concept” has assured the grower that chemicals for weed control are merely a component part of a total system for managing weeds in crops (9, 65).
