Extension Interests

Herbicide resistant weeds are a key issue in our state and one of my primary interests is to assist herbicide users in developing effective resistance management programs. Integrated pest management (IPM) is also an important concept in weed management. Another interest is the development of new IPM tools for managing Nebraska's weeds and helping farmers to implement these tools effectively.
