By definition, weeds are plants that aren't welcome where they grow. Invading borders or containers and strangling favourite flowers, weeds can be a nightmare to eradicate and no garden, terrace or patio is immune. But help is at hand. Carroll & Brown, publishers of The First-Time Gardener and Garden Tools, are pleased to present Weeds: Friend or Foe?, their latest must-have book for anyone with an interest in gardening. Utterly comprehensive and packed with photographs to help you differentiate between weeds and their more desirable plant cousins, Weeds: Friend or Foe? is particularly useful if you're moving into a new property or if, like many of us, you let your garden take care of itself Major sections of the book cover the manual and chemical means you can take to prevent and eradicate weeds. However, you may be surprised to discover that some weeds can be a valuable asset to the gardener. Many attract wildlife or have culinary or medical applications, so it pays to be sure you understand your weeds before you eradicate them.The book displays the different common weeds and details their various growing stages, so you get the information you need to decide whether to keep them and if not, how to remove them and prevent others growing. Additionally you will learn how to cultivate and use weeds without jeopardising the rest of your garden. For ambitious readers there are step-by-step details on creating decoctions, infusions and powders, and charts and, information on the use of a wide range of edible weeds. With the recent surge in the popularity of wild, natural-looking plants in our gardens, could the notoriously undesirable weed be elevated to romantic wild plant status? Weeds: Friend or Foe? can help you to nurture a variety of weeds, or, if you prefer, to kill and prevent them from coming back. With its clear, accessible and attractive format, it's a must for green-fingered pro and gardening novice.

Exotic Plant Pests and North American Agriculture examines the threat posed by exotic pests introduced to North American agriculture. It considers the impact of introduced pests on humans, and it highlights the need for intensified research efforts and international cooperation to prevent further introductions. Organized into 17 chapters plus an epilogue, this volume begins with a historical overview of pest introductions, including insects and mites, and possible introductions in the future. It then discusses the impact of introduced weeds in North America; ecology and genetics of exotic species; how to detect and stop pest introductions; and research on exotic insects, plant pathogens, and weeds. The reader is also introduced to the use of exotic natural enemies for biological control of exotic pests, prediction of potential epidemics caused by exotic pests, insurance against exotic plant pathogens, and international cooperation on controlling exotic pests. Scientists, plant pathologists, ecologists, and those working in academics, government research laboratories, and regulatory agencies will benefit from reading this book.

This book reviews the economic potential of various natural resources found in the Egyptian deserts that could help fill the food gap in Egypt, e.g., the date palm, olives, and domestic animals. Bearing in mind that the entire country is subject to arid or hyperarid climatic conditions, only a small portion (3% of total area) is agriculturally productive in comparison, the dominant deserts. These aspects, combined with a growing population (ca. 100 million citizens) and water resources scarcity, have produced severe adverse effects on natural resource utilization. This book presents innovative methods for addressing desert soil's key problems (soil erosion, salinity, pollution, decreased fertility, minerals, and weed and pest control). Its goal is to help authorities reclaim the desert and optimally utilize the minerals and the available natural resources to support the sustainability agenda 2030. Besides, it offers researchers guidance on remaining gaps and future research directions. Lastly and importantly, it provides essential information on investment opportunities in desert cultivation, such as the fields of food, fodder, and medicinal plants.

A passion for gardening First released in 1982, Gardening Under the Archhas long been hailed as the gardening bible for the challenging chinook region of southwestern Alberta. Now, for the first time since its original publication, this hugely successful book has been revised and updated into a full-colour edition by some of its original contributors and a new group of gardeners. This unique book is truly a work of the heart. Hardly slick, not at all highbrow, Gardening Under the Archis full of practical, homespun know-how based on the collective wisdom gleaned over years by determined gardeners in the chinook zone. There is knowledge here that can't be found in other books, and there is loads of passion for the love of gardening and all the special moments it brings. Gardening Under the Archprovides insight and inspiration, from the first sunny day in spring when you dig your beds to that cold winter's day when you enjoy a freshly baked pie made with the fruit you have grown.
