Helped @ArthurFr7 establish his first graduate research project this week: herbicide carryover evaluation for alfalfa. 10 years ago, almost to the day, I established my first project research project under @vmdavis researching herbicide carryover for cover crop establishment.
A lot of fun today. The @WiscWeeds Team helped me to establish my 2nd-year Research Experiment evaluating the impact of residual herbicides on interseeded #covercrops. Thanks a lot, all! I am looking forward to seeing the results.
Incredibly rewarding for me as #WiscWeeds PI to walk around @UWMadAgronomy department & stumble upon our senior grad students & academic staff teaching, mentoring, & having high level research conversations with junior lab members! #TeamWork
This morning @FFaleco gave us a valuable tour at the Walnut St Greenhouse about the ongoing @WiscWeeds projects, including synthetic auxin herbicide dose-response with #waterhemp & effect of different temperatures on synthetic auxin herbicides performance on #waterhemp
Congratulations to the Badgers Weeds Team! 1st place grad farmer problem (M. Kendall) & 1 place grad team sprayer calibration (M. Kendall, @_arsenijevic, @gchudzik1 & @FFaleco).
Thanks @NCWeedScience, @CortevaUS & all involved for the excellent educational event to our students!
The 2022 UW #CoverCrop Management in Conventional Corn-Soybean Production Systems Plot Tour at Arlington ARS is in the books! Awesome discussions throughout the event.
Many thanks to all involved!

Busy day for the @WiscWeeds team establishing a drift trial at Arlington Ag Research Station. In this partnership trial with @Bayer4Crops we are evaluating the use of a hooded sprayer for drift management. Stay tuned!
Wrapping up for the day. We collected field soil after 40 days of herbicide application in a #WiscWeeds project where we are evaluating the impact of residual herbicides on #covercrop species interseeded into #corn
This week @Tatianesevero16 will take over the @NCWeedScience Twitter account on behalf of the #WiscWeeds team! Follow along for weed management updates from America’s Dairyland!
This week the #wiscWeeds Team will give you some info about the projects/trials they are conducting in #wisconsin at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Stay tuned!
The 2022 #WiscWeeds Rock Co Farm Giant Ragweed Management Plot Tour is on the books! Many thanks to all involved in the organization, sponsors & participants.
Stay tuned for info on our upcoming #waterhemp & #covercrop plot tours (dates TBA) @arnaman6 @derff53
