Weed Management in an Herbicide-Resistant World
An American Society of Agronomy webinar sponsored by the Crop Protection Network.
Date: Thursday, February 3, 2022
Time: 12:00 Noon-12:30 PM Eastern/11:00 AM-11:30 Central/10:00-10:30 AM Mountain/9:00-9:30 AM Pacific
Weed management is more challenging now than it has been at any point in the past 25 years. Herbicide resistance has resulted in the need to explore non-chemical weed management tactics and to relearn some older concepts, such as understanding weed biology and the weed seed bank. This webinar will discuss research on non-chemical weed management strategies, including cereal rye weed suppression, weed electrocution, and at-harvest weed seed destruction.
Speaker:
Mandy Bish, Extension Weed Specialist, University of Missouri

CCA/CPAg: 0.5 Pest Management
CPSS/CPSC: 0.5 Professional Meetings
