Bryan G. Young studies weed control in crop production, focusing on herbicide effectiveness, resistance mechanisms in weeds like Palmer amaranth and waterhemp, and application methods for crops such as corn, soybean, and pumpkin. Recent work also incorporates precision agriculture tools such as hyperspectral and multispectral imaging and machine learning to detect herbicide effects and target weed spraying more precisely.
