Weed Science and Invasive Species Management
Weeds are among the most damaging of agricultural, horticultural, or wildland pests. Weeds affect not only the quantity, but also the quantity of food, feed, and ornamental production of growers throughout the world. Weeds reduce crop yield, weeds poison livestock, weeds foul waterways, weeds invade and degrade native ecosystems. Losses to weeds, through direct reductions as well as weed control costs, were estimated in 1992 to be a staggering $20 billion in the United States alone. Weed control research at Washington State University has historically and will continue to center on managing a changing weed spectrum through development of integrated weed management strategies, including chemical, cultural, mechanical, and biological methods.
