The 59th annual Weed Day at UC Davis will be held next week on Thursday July 16th. It's not too late to register but there are only a few spots left before we reach capacity.

It's the 4th of July! Time for fireworks! (Yay!) Time for picnics! (Yay!) Time for parades! (Yay!) Time for weeds! (Huh? What?) That's right, weeds. While it is true that many problem pest plant species were imported from Europe and Asia, a lot are also home-grown.

When we think about weed control in crop production, we often think about 'short-term' result, i.e. weed control after 30 days, weed control after 60 days, weed control at harvest, etc.
