Decision-Support Tool for Managing Pigweed

The PAM software serves as a valuable decision-support tool for guiding integrated management of Palmer amaranth by utilizing existing research knowledge and providing a greater understanding of the long-term biological (seedbank size and persistence) and economic (improved cost-benefit analysis) implications of various management choices. Decision support will allow improved crop production and profitability through adoption of IPM tactics that preserve the long-term utility of available herbicide options, and minimize the human health risks and environmental impacts associated with herbicide resistance.
