Farmers use different methods to remove weeds. Some of them are
1) Manual method:
Many farmers still remove weeds by manually pulling them out of the field, making sure to include the roots that would otherwise allow them to resprout.
2) Stale seed bed method :
This method involves cultivating the soil, then leaving it follow for a week or so when the initial weeds sprout, the farmer lightly hoes them away before planting the desired crop.
3) Using Herbicides :
Selective herbicides kill certain targets while leaving the desired crop relatively unharmed.
4) Biological control:
Vinegar kills the visible part of the weed. They will wrinkle and die next day.
5) Ploughing & Tilling :
Ploughing includes filling of soil, inter-cultural ploughing and summer ploughing. Ploughing up roots weeds causing them to die. Mechanical tilling can remove weeds around crop plants at various points in the growing process. Crop rotation method also helps in controlling weeds.
