I had the opportunity last week to attend the Weed Science Society of America (WSSA) annual meeting which was held in Portland OR this year. The meeting was really interesting as usual with many interesting oral and poster research presentations.
During the last few years, one of my core research areas has included several projects related to preplant soil fumigation in collaboration with a number of UC, USDA-ARS, and industry researchers.
A few months ago I compiled some statistics on the acreage and value of tree and vine crops in California and put together a simple map of where the main production areas are located.
