Descripción:	Abstract: Eleusine indica (L.) Gaertn., commonly known as goosegrass, is one of the most troublesome weed species worldwide. In Brazil, the increasing number of herbicide-resistance cases, particularly to glyphosate, has made goosegrass the most agronomically significant weed species in the country. Given its rapid spread in recent cropping seasons, this review compiles current knowledge on goosegrass biology and herbicide resistance to support the development of more effective integrated weed management strategies. Successful control approaches must consider the species' biological characteristics and the potential occurrence of herbicide-resistant populations in target areas. The adoption of preventive practices (e.g., cleaning machinery, purchasing seeds from certified companies), cultural practices (e.g., balanced fertilization, use of regionally cultivars, phytotechnical adjustments), and mechanical practices (e.g., mowing) can optimize the effectiveness of herbicides in controlling this weed. Chemical control of goosegrass should rely on pre-emergence herbicides, along with post-emergence products featuring different mechanisms of action, with sequential applications anticipated. Implementing integrated weed management systems offers the potential to mitigate the current losses and damage caused by goosegrass.
