At its simplest, weed management just comes down to the three R's of weed management: remove, reduce, and reclaim. If we take care of these 3 R's on a regular basis, we have no trouble keeping the weeds at bay. Here's a look at 8 strategies we use to apply our 3 R’s of weed management while still helping our vegetable crops get well established at the same time.

Intelligent weed management is just one step on the journey to much easier vegetable growing.
