| Abstract/Contents: | "Recent concerns about public health risks of glyphosate have led to increased bans or restrictions in California cities, counties, and school districts. Landscape management clientele had a quicklyevolving need to reduce or eliminate glyphosate from their integrated pest management (IPM) programs. One option is to use alternative or organic herbicides for weed control, but researchbased information on organic herbicides performance in urban landscape systems is limited. To generate new knowledge that supports urban landscape clientele, we conducted a series of field trials across microclimates to evaluate glyphosate alternatives and organic herbicides. Our objective was to compare "organically acceptable" and alternative herbicides to conventional standards like glyphosate. We evaluated 14 herbicides across 3 locations in central and northern California. Field sites included grassy and broadleaf weeds in mowed lawn areas. Overall, there were differences among herbicide treatments depending on microclimate, weed species, and time of year. Burnout (citric acid + clove oil) did not perform well in any experiment. Urban landscape practitioners need to understand tradeoffs associated with alternative or organic weed control strategies. Compared to standard glyphosate-containing landscape herbicides, organic herbicides may have different personal protective equipment (PPE) requirements, reapplication frequency, active ingredient loads, cost, and acute toxicity." |
