Round table: Present situation of weed science in Mediterranean climate areas B. Rubin, E. Pannacci, J. Recasens, A. Uludag JOINT WORKSHOP OF THE EWRS WORKING GROUPS: Weed management in arid and semi-arid climate and Weed management systems in vegetables 4-8 September 2011 Huesca, Spain

Students enrolment going down? How we can attract young scientists to weed science??? Funds availability …………… Weed education and research in the region

Conventional Agriculture – Organic Agriculture Diversity and Variability : climate, soils, rotations….. …………… The place of farming and weed control methods in the Mediterranean region

Irrigated crops → crop rotations; soil texture Non-irrigated crops → arid and semi arid → perennials, parasitic weeds …………… Special climate – special problems (arid and semi-arid zone)

Physical methods Chemical methods Precision Agriculture …………… Methods in use in the region

Need for a update and complete list of herbicides authorised …….. Herbicide registration in Europe and its effect on the region (outside of Europe) policy
