How can herbicides improve crop?

Herbicides kill weeds. A selective herbicide will attack specific weeds only and not harm the crop. Weeds grow in farm land (like everywhere else). With the care, such as fertilizer, applied to the crops, the weeds also benefit from it growing and spreading and seeding which will eventually choke out the crops without any herbicide maintenance. Some weeds can grow taller than the crops shaded them to the point that they receive no sunlight and die. Herbicide is part of any farm or nursery for their crop maintenance.
