Description
The possibilities of mechanical weed control have evolved significantly over the past decade and it is therefore interesting to think of a combination of chemical and mechanical weed control as they can offer an effective response to various challenges. This is the desired goal. After all, it is becoming increasingly difficult to keep fields free of weeds, as active substances are disappearing due to regulations, restrictions and the occurrence of resistances.
