Abstract
Producers of food have always been troubled with weeds. Hand labor was the primary source of weed control for centuries, and selective weed control was not achieved until copper sulphate was used to control mustard (Brassicaspp.) in wheat (Triticum aestivumL.) in 1896 (4, 42). Adequate crop selectivity was usually difficult to obtain with herbicides during the first 40 yr of the 20th century and the cost of the early herbicides was high.
