Alternative Weed Control Methods: A Review

Risk Analysis of Various Weed Control Methods

Nearly all weed control methods influence both the abiotic and biotic components of the ecosystem. These include the following: mechanical control techniques; cultural practices such as grazing, burning, flooding or revegetation, the introduction of biological weed control agents; and the use of chemicals. This paper reviews many of the risks of weed control and, in some cases, suggests prevent...

Artemisia Annua L. as an Alternative Potential Weed Control Option

Alternative Mosquito Control Methods

As mosquitoes can transmit a number of diseases such as dengue fever, malaria, Japanese encephalitis, yellow fever etc., efforts have been made to control them. Control measures could be aimed at different stages of the insect in its life cycle. The measures can be classified as biological, environmental (physical) and chemical control. Integrated mosquito management approach should be adopted ...

Alternative Bloat Control Methods

Bloat control is an important aspect of evolutionary computation methods, such as genetic programming, which must deal with genomes of arbitrary size. We introduce three new methods for bloat control: Biased Multi-Objective Parsimony Pressure (BMOPP), the Waiting Room, and Death by Size. These methods are unusual approaches to bloat control, and are not only useful in various circumstances, but...
