Extract

Extension workers often identify production, marketing, managerial, or educational constraints that reduce agricultural efficiencies. The preceding papers documented that both yellow and purple nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus L. # CYPES and C. rotundus L. # CYPRO) are serious weeds in many worldwide agricultural cropping systems. Detailed literature reviews and suggested directions for future research also were presented. As a partial summary of the symposium, this paper attempts to condense the information regarding yellow nutsedge into several options or strategies for consideration by year-round weed management practitioners.
