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

Virginia Tech is inviting applications for an Assistant Professor of Vegetable/Herbicide Resistance.

The California Weed Science Society recently published the 4th edition of the Principles of Weed Control as an e-book. This textbook/handbook that has been a valuable resource for many years and I'm excited that it has been updated.

The California Alfalfa Symposium was held last week for the first time ever in Long Beach to an audience of approximately 450 attendees. As usual, there was a wide range of alfalfa production, marketing and policy-related presentations.

An online course highlighting how pesticide resistance develops among pests is now available on the UC IPM Web site.

It's that time of year again. Time for egg-nog, time for gingerbread cookies, time for stringing outdoor lights that have become tangled up into a massive, intractable knot, and time for decorating the home and hearth with weeds. What? Weeds? Yes, weeds.
