This website (organicweeds.org.uk) aims to be a primary
resource on weed management for organic farms, reporting on the latest weed
information, weeding techniques and weed research. It aims to act as a focal
point for farmers, growers, advisors and researchers to share their experiences
with weeds. Read about the approach
here.
The information on this website is free to use and develop.
Below are a list of resources that you might find useful to to begin to learn
about and develop your knowledge of any particular weed management topic. There
are also various ways to get
