Extract

The future of weed science, and indeed of all of modern agricultural science and technology, is in jeopardy today because the public does not clearly understand their importance. As a result, decisions may be made and actions taken that can, and will if continued, most certainly destroy our complex and highly productive agricultural systems where one worker annually provides food for more than 46 people. We can improve prospects for the future by effective action.
