Weeds are perhaps the most underestimated crop pests in tropical agriculture, although they cause severe reduction/loss in the yields of crop (37% of the total annual loss of agricultural produce) when uncontrolled. Weeds pose serious problems to agriculture and environment. Weeds are competitive and have great adaptation capacity to adverse and diverse environments. Weed science research is currently experiencing unprecedented challenges as well as prospects. Management of invasive alien weeds, indiscriminate use of herbicides, herbicide resistance in weeds, herbicidal toxicity to succeeding crops and environment, threat to native biodiversity, and weed shift are the new challenges in the field of weed management. Successful weed management in organic farming, conservation agriculture and natural farming are new areas drawing attention of researchers. Thus, weed science is increasingly becoming an interesting field for the researchers.
