UC Weed Science (weed control, management, ecology, and minutia)

The yellow nutsedge (Cyperus esculentus) took over the tall fescue turf during the night. I am sure of it. One day it wasnt there and the next day it was.

A recent find in Oregon has weed scientists, botanists, land managers, and plant conservationists throughout the Pacific Northwest and California really excited over a tiny insect.

Don't miss the following event: The Aquatic Weed School 2012 is an intensive 2-day course focusing on issues associated with developing weed management strategies in a variety of aquatic ecosystems.

How much work does it take to get rid of a weed? Will I need to treat this population again next year? These are simple questions when managing weeds and the answer falls into a general pattern.

UC Cooperative Extension Farm Advisor David Doll is organizing a "Central San Joaquin Valley Summer Almond Field Day" on June 1, 2012. More info HERE or in the agenda at the bottom of this post.
