Nebraska Ag Connection - 10/22/2018

Growers, crop consultants and educators are encouraged to attend Nebraska Extension's Weed Science School from 8.30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Oct. 31 at the Eastern Nebraska Research and Extension Center near Mead.

The school will include several morning presentations, including an overview of weed control and herbicide-resistant weeds in Nebraska, a Nebraska Department of Agriculture procedure to investigate dicamba off-target injury, forensic analysis of dicamba injury, and much more.

The afternoon session will include onsite weed identification, information on cover crops and weed suppression, effect of ultra-micro rates of dicamba on soybean yield, and managing herbicide drift.

"Dr. Kevin Bradley, professor of weed science at the University of Missouri is an invited speaker to present his 15 years of research experience for management of herbicide-resistant waterhemp," said extension weed management specialist Amit Jhala.

Certified Crop Advisor (CCA) Continuing Education Units are available.

There is no cost to attend the field day, but participants are asked to register at agronomy.unl.edu/weedscienceschool.
