What advantages does the Weed Science Society provide you?

Members of the Iranian Society of Weed Science (ISWS) are valuable assets in the advancement of scientific and research activities, and this asset merits any assistance. The society's board of directors believes itself obligated to create a sufficient platform to meet the members' scientific and even social demands and will spare no effort in this direction. It will shortly reveal to the esteemed members of the society the advantages of membership.

Information about the most recent weed-related scientific events:

The ISWS has several initiatives aimed at fostering dialogue between the country's scientific community and its counterparts abroad and disseminating information about the latest research and scientific breakthroughs from around the globe. To this end, the society's specialized working groups will monitor and collect the most recent events and scientific advancements in the field of weeds and make them available to those who are interested. Respected members of society can ask their scientific questions directly to the people in charge of the specialized working groups and get an answer. 

Collaboration with farmers:

One of the initiatives of the ISWS is to increase communication between researchers, managers, planners, farmers, and the nation's agricultural community. This society has ties to educational and research institutions on the one hand and to policymakers, planners, and executive managers of the country on the other, and this can serve as a foundation for communicating the desires of farmers to the appropriate authorities. The ISWS is concerned with society's relationship with agricultural and industrial complexes, non-governmental organizations in the agricultural sector, corporations, and farmers, and its members believe they owe it to farmers to help them. The specialized working groups of the ISWS will include the scientific and research needs of the agricultural sector in their study programs and provide practical solutions to solve the existing problems.

Collaboration with planners and policymakers:

The evaluation of current weed science concerns within the agriculture area is one of the most important programs of the ISWS. By leveraging the country's large pool of weed science experts and active human resources, this organization is able to keep tabs on what's happening around the world (and within the country) in terms of weeds and report its findings to policymakers and managers so that they can make informed decisions. The research and educational priorities of this society are going to be adjusted, reworked, and carried out in a manner that is congruent with the policies and long-term plans that the nation has developed for the agricultural sector. Food security, healthy food production, the reduction of environmental pollution, the preservation of biodiversity, the decrease of production costs, and a reduction in the agricultural sector's reliance on chemical herbicides are among the top priorities of the members of this society. Our aim in this society is to establish this relationship to offer farmers useful solutions. Achieving this goal necessitates the development of a broad relationship between society and the legislative, executive, educational, and research systems of the nation and international countries.

Collaborating with scientists:

The ISWS will facilitate connections between national and international scientific groups and researchers. Among the programs that this society has prepared for individuals interested are the organization of specialized meetings, workshops, and scientific conferences, as well as the publication of the scientific accomplishments of researchers. Researchers and students also have access to information about the research needs of the country's agricultural industry and advice on how to do practical, problem-based research in the field of weeds. This helps them connect their research programs to the most important needs of the country.
