Summary

This tool is a decision support system (DSS). It is designed to optimise weed control in organic winter wheat production based on expert knowledge and experimental results. To start the tool JavaScript needs to be enabled in the browser.
The tool requires the insertion of basic information regarding climate, type of soil and crop rotation. Requires more detailed information regarding weeds (species, relative abundance).
The information provided about site conditions are evaluated to produce appropriate options for managing weeds. Indications are given on farming practices like, among others, soil tillage, seed population and wheat varieties phenotype.
It is useful for organic farmers and advisers, both newcomers and skilled. The information it provides can be helpful also for conventional farmers.
