Crops it troubles
How to tell it is a broadleaf
Wide leaves with a net of veins. The group decides what kills it, so check the stem and the leaf before you buy a herbicide.
How to keep it out
Cut it low and dig out the crowns, then keep slashing the regrowth; birds spread its berries, so take out fruiting plants first.
How to control it
What to do and which active ingredients work depend on your crop and how old it is. The weed control helper in anee.io gives both, for coconut and every other crop it grows in.
