HERBIE - Comparative Evaluation of Vegetation Control and Management Methods for European Railways
European railways seek alternatives to glyphosate (1). The UIC commissioned the IZT to investigate and propose environmentally friendly alternatives.
For years, European railways have been looking for alternatives to herbicides such as the controversial glyposate to keep track areas free of plant growth. For the first time, the International Union of Railways (UIC) commissioned the IZT in 2017 to 2018 to propose more environmentally friendly methods.
