        Compared to other agricultural sciences, weed science is a new science, but it has been considered as an old tradition and method. Weeding was one of the first method in weed control, but with the over of time and the invention of agricultural tools, new methods for weed control were introduced and have been more or less used until. However, Today, challenges have been created in this science, the most important of which are the emergence of herbicide-resistant biotypes, reduction of the effectiveness of old herbicides, the lack of weed management methods and the reduction of the introduction of herbicides with new modes of action. In the future, according to the need, it is important to introduce natural compounds as a suitable option to discover a new site of action and produce bio-herbicides. Also, genetic engineering will be considered as another tool for adjusting the selective properties of herbicides and creating new management methods. Computer science and robotic, which include electronic eyes, sensors for distinguishing crops from weeds, and other tools related to engineering sciences, are also important and needed in weed management that are being developed and processed. Also, combining old methods with new tools can be considered as a suitable option for sustainable management of weeds. Manuscript profile
