Role of cover crops in enhancing weed control technology

Abstract

This review synthesizes current research on the integration of cover crops with advanced agricultural technologies for enhancing weed control. It evaluates the effectiveness of various strategies, including precision agriculture, mechanical termination, and integrated weed management systems, in leveraging the ecological benefits of cover crops for sustainable and efficient weed suppression. By examining recent advancements and applications, this paper highlights the potential of combining cover crops with technology to reduce herbicide dependency, improve soil health, and promote sustainable agricultural practices.
