This book outlines the processes and applications of herbicides in detail. The topics included in it are of utmost significance and are bound to provide incredible insights to readers. Herbicides are an important part of crop protection. They are referred to as the chemical materials used to kill weeds and other unwanted plants. Herbicides or weed killers are of two types, namely, selective herbicides, which are used on specific weeds and non-selective herbicides, which are used to control all unwanted plants. This text is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the science and usage of herbicides, and the effects they have on our environment. Readers would gain knowledge that would broaden their perspective about this field. For all those students, experts and researchers who are interested in the field of herbicides, the case studies included in this book will serve as an excellent guide to develop a comprehensive understanding. 3
