On parle [...] couramment de «désherbage des plantes aquatiques». Cette expression est prise dans un sens différent de «désherbage du blé» où il convient de sauvegarder le blé, alors que le désherbage des plantes aquatiques vise à les détruire. Il a été proposé «désherbage en milieu aquatique», ce qui serait sans doute plus correct, mais cette expression a bien peu de chance de s'imposer en raison de sa longueur. 1, record 1, French, - d%C3%A9sherbage%20des%20plantes%20aquatiques
