Urban weed control: innovations in kerb and channel weed management

摘要

Weeds in kerbs and channels of roads and in other areas of hard standing continue to be an issue in urban areas from the aspect of visual impact, damage to assets, cost to management and environmental pollution. To address these issues, Brisbane CityCouncil has combined several technologies to develop a spray unit that reduces cost of application, reduces herbicide use, increases operator safety and working conditions and improves recording of operations.
