Extract

The evaluation of herbicidal weed control is often difficult, time-consuming, and non-precise. Neither weed counts, weights, ratings, effects on labor requirements, nor other common methods are wholly satisfactory for general use, although most of these methods are of value for one or more specific purposes.
