What is a Weed?
• A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted.• Ex. Red rice,
Giant Ragweed

How do weeds affect us??
• 2-Brainstorm….What are some affects of weeds on our everyday life?
![Page 5: WEED CONTROL. What is a Weed?? What is a Weed? A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted. Ex. Red rice, Giant Ragweed](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022033106/56649cda5503460f949a4ac7/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
6 Ways Weeds affect Humans
• Housing pest• Impurities in crops• Poisonous• Allergies• Costly• Aesthetic • Impure seed products
![Page 6: WEED CONTROL. What is a Weed?? What is a Weed? A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted. Ex. Red rice, Giant Ragweed](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022033106/56649cda5503460f949a4ac7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
6 ways weeds affect humans
• Housing insects and disease.• Impurities in agriculture
products.–Ex.-red rice causes lower yields.
• Poisonous to livestock.• Allergic reactions-common
ragweed

Why do weeds cost $$?
• Competition for water and nutrients.• Competition reduces crop yields.• Expense of herbicides.• Contamination of seeds• Aesthetics
![Page 8: WEED CONTROL. What is a Weed?? What is a Weed? A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted. Ex. Red rice, Giant Ragweed](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022033106/56649cda5503460f949a4ac7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
How do weeds compete with crops?
• Uses nutrients intended for crops.• Competes for growing space.• Interferes with harvest.• Crowds out crops and allows for crop
loss.

Review
• Define weed• The effects of competition on the crop
or yields• The effects of weeds on humans and
livestock• The aesthetic effects of weeds in home
yards and public areas• The economic effects on crop yields.

Identifying Weeds
• Weeds can be classified based upon their:– Lifecycle– Persistence– Leaf Structure
![Page 11: WEED CONTROL. What is a Weed?? What is a Weed? A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted. Ex. Red rice, Giant Ragweed](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022033106/56649cda5503460f949a4ac7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Weed Lifecycles
• Annuals- – Grow from seed and complete their life cycle in
one growing season
• Biennials-– Complete their life cycle in two growing seasons
• Perennials– Require two or more years to complete their
lifecycle
![Page 12: WEED CONTROL. What is a Weed?? What is a Weed? A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted. Ex. Red rice, Giant Ragweed](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022033106/56649cda5503460f949a4ac7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Persistence• Common Weeds: – These are more persistent and may or may not be
vigorous.– Cause serious problems to farmers because they reoccur
so often– Mostly annuals
• Noxious Weeds:– Most undesirable– Persistent growth makes them hard to control
• Leaf Structure:– Grasses– Broadleaf
![Page 13: WEED CONTROL. What is a Weed?? What is a Weed? A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted. Ex. Red rice, Giant Ragweed](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022033106/56649cda5503460f949a4ac7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Identifying Common Weeds
• Weed ID Project– You must collect 15 different common weeds– Label each weed, identifying their:• lifecycle• Persistence• leaf structure.
![Page 14: WEED CONTROL. What is a Weed?? What is a Weed? A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted. Ex. Red rice, Giant Ragweed](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022033106/56649cda5503460f949a4ac7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Review
• Major Weed Categories:– Lifecycle• Annual• Biennial• Perennial
– Persistence• Common• Noxious• Leaf structure
– Weed ID Project

Student Learning Objective
• Describe the methods of weed control.• Determine the use of chemicals to control
weeds.• Explain alternative methods of weed control.• Describe methods of weed management.
![Page 16: WEED CONTROL. What is a Weed?? What is a Weed? A weed is a plant growing where it is not wanted. Ex. Red rice, Giant Ragweed](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022033106/56649cda5503460f949a4ac7/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Methods for weed control1. Mechanical: hand pulling, hoeing, tractor cultivation, etc.
2. Biological: using parasites, predators, genetic engineering, etc
3. Cultural: cropping practices, host resistance, sanitation, varying planting dates
4. Chemical controls: use of herbicides.
•Herbicides are classified as either:
- Selective - kill only certain types of plants- Nonselective - kill all plants they come in contact with
- Herbicides are classified further according to the time they are applied.
- Pre-emergent- Post-emergent
