About Weed Technology
Weed Technology publishes original research and scholarship in the form of peer-reviewed articles focused on understanding how weeds are managed. It focuses on:
- applied aspects concerning the management of weeds in agricultural systems
- herbicides used to manage undesired vegetation, weed biology and control
- weed/crop management systems
- reports of new weed problems
- new technologies for weed management and special articles emphasizing technology transfer to improve weed control
- Articles dealing with plant growth regulators and management of undesired plant growth may also be accepted, provided there is clear relevance to weed science technology, e.g., turfgrass or woody plant management along rights-of-way, vegetation management in forest, aquatic, or other non-crop situations.
- Surveys, education, and extension topics related to weeds will also be considered.
Instructions to Authors
Weed Technology is a quarterly, peer-reviewed journal focused on understanding how weeds are managed.
Manuscripts may cover applied aspects concerning the management of weeds in agricultural systems; herbicides used to manage undesired vegetation, weed biology and control; weed/crop management systems; reports of new weed problems; and new technologies for weed management and special articles emphasizing technology transfer to improve weed control.
Articles dealing with plant growth regulators and management of undesired plant growth may also be accepted, provided there is clear relevance to weed science technology. Surveys, education, and extension topics related to weeds will also be considered. Both full-length original research articles and shorter notes and field reports are welcome. Newsnotes, announcements, commentaries, and reviews of interest to the weed science community are also welcome. All manuscripts will be submitted for peer-review to the Editor, who will assign it to a selected member of the Editorial Review Board, and independent outside review.
Membership in the Weed Science Society of America is not a prerequisite for submission.
