Field weeds of organic cereals in the Sault region, Haute Provence: their identification and ecology

Report

Arable weeds are perhaps the ecological grouping most vulnerable to changing land use in Europe (Storkey et al., 2012). These endangered communities are not only valued by ecologists, conservationists and archaeologists (who study present-day agrosystems to build models for comparison with the past), but are also an inherent part of working life for organic farmers. This booklet is the product of collaboration among organic cereal producers based in and around Sault, Haute Provence, the Chambre d’agriculture in Sault (and more recently the Chambre d’agriculture du Vaucluse), the Conservatoire d’espaces naturels Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur (CEN-PACA), the Conservatoire Botanique National Alpin (CBNA), the Centre d’Ecologie Fonctionnelle et Evolutive (CEFE) and the School of Archaeology, University of Oxford.
