Focus and Scope

Bio-Herbicides and Sustainable Weed Management Journal (BHSWMJ) focuses on research related to biological weed control, particularly the development and application of plant- and microbe-derived herbicides. It is intended to attract submissions on allelopathy, phytochemicals with herbicidal properties, sustainable weed-control strategies and eco-friendly alternatives to synthetic herbicides. The journal will serve researchers working on natural-product discovery, weed resistance issues and environmentally responsible weed management. Its strength lies in addressing the global need for safer, sustainable herbicide solutions and providing a dedicated platform for innovation in bio-herbicide development.

  • Plant based bio herbicides, natural weed suppressants and allelopathic compounds.
  • Microbial and fungal bio herbicides and their mechanisms.
  • Allelopathy, plant plant biochemical interactions and phytochemical activity.
  • Weed physiology, resistance evolution and mode of action studies.
  • Sustainable and eco friendly weed management strategies.
  • Bio herbicide formulation, delivery systems and targeted application.
  • Field, pot and greenhouse evaluation of bio herbicide performance.
  • Soil health impacts, rhizosphere interactions, toxicity, safety and regulatory considerations.
