Stakeholder perceptions of agroecological weed control in Arctic horticulture

Weed control strategies in Arctic horticulture: stakeholder perceptions and agroecological practices

or

Detail description

Stakeholder perceptions of agroecological weed control methods in Arctic horticulture, focusing on crop rotation, tillage, cover crops, mechanical cultivation, intercropping, weed flaming, and living mulch in Iceland. Crop rotation is considered most effective but limited by land scarcity. Weed burning using homemade burners is used in organic carrot farming. Mechanical weeding, row tillers, robotic systems, and soil covers are of growing interest, though short growing seasons hinder cover crop establishment.
