Title: INFORMATION VALUE IN WEED MANAGEMENT
Authors: Gillmeister, William J.

Issue Date: 1990-04
Abstract: Use of the economic threshold to improve the efficiency of preemergent-herbicide treatment decisions is limited by a lack of weed information. An economic model for assessing the expected value of weed information needed to implement a threshold decision rule is developed. Empirical results suggest that early season weed information can have value in cabbage weed management in Massachusetts.
