Ecological considerations of herbicide use in Alberta / J.H. Patterson.: CW69-37/26E-PDF
"The majority of herbicides presently in use are employed for selective weed control in agricultural crops.

However, cropland monocultures are, by fundamental ecological standards, simple and highly unstable ecosystems"--Page 13.
