The purpose of this lab is to familiarize you with the conceptual structure of weed life history models and let you construct and use some simple weed population models to simulate weed population dynamics. We use models in weed science to simplify weed population and weed invaded plant community behavior. Models are not meant to be perfect representations of nature, they merely help characterize nature in a useful way.
Wild oat is a serious weed in wheat production.
The rate is the proportion of individuals that move from one state to the next state in the direction that the triangle points. The time period associated with each rate can vary depending on the process. The equations are solved in sequence to simulate population dynamics. Get QB.EXE by downloading. A single quote at the beginning of a line tells the programming language interpreter that the line is just a comment not for calculation.
