This Booklet gives recommendations on the use of herbicides in British forests. It replaces Forestry Commission Leaflet 51, also entitled Chemical Control of Weeds in the Forest. Suitable types of equipment are generally described in Chapter 8, but detailed advice on the most suitable type and make of spraying equipment is not given as this can be found in Forestry Commission Bulletin 48, Weeding in the Forest. Recommendations for the use of herbicides in forest nurseries can be found in Forestry Commission Bulletin 43, Nursery Practice.
Note: This is an archive publication. Always consult the most recent guidance for up-to-date information.
