Soils and Compost:
Physical weed control, including mulching, or hand removal protects the watershed from harmful chemicals.
Water Saving Tip:
Mulching and adding compost to soil can minimize evaporation and help soil absorb and store water.
Integrated Pest Management:
Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
