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

Reposted from Sac Valley Orchards (article here or landing page here) I recently participated in a UCCE meeting focused on orchard management decision making when times are hard.

David W. Cudney, UC Cooperative Extension specialist emeritus, passed away in Riverside on March 30. He was 82. Cudney joined UCCE in 1964 as a farm advisor for Imperial County. In 1978, he became a UCCE weed science specialist for Southern California, based at UC Riverside.

I learned recently that the preplant incorporated (PPI) herbicide ethalfuralin (Sonalan HFP) was labeled for use in hemp and stevia. See below for the CA/NY supplemental label or download it from your preferred label website.

Sharing a link to an upcoming seminar on a broad screening of annual bluegrass (Poaannua) resistance to herbicides. This is related to aUSDA Specialty Crop Research Initiative grant called "ResistPoa".
