Ecologically-based Weed Management
Our lab focuses on understanding the ecological principles that underpin crop production and weed population and community-level dynamics. We use a variety of approaches, including field and greenhouse experiments and simulation modeling. The goal of our research is to inform the development of integrated, multi-tactical weed and crop management strategies that are both economically and ecologically sustainable.
