Excellent video by #WiscWeeds grad student @JacobFelsman describing his research efforts to quantify the influence of soil & weed management practices on soil health in corn-soybean rotations. https://t.co/UqgY56gL6J
The 2023 #WiscWeeds team!
Our team is now tenured @UWMadison! Many thanks to all who contributed to this major achievement & continue to support our mission, including our amazing lab members (former & current), families, friends, mentors, colleagues, sponsors, & clientele!
Bulk density, Aggregate Stability, & Composite samples...oh my! Today, @JacobFelsman led a @WiscWeeds crew at UW Lancaster Ag Research Station to soil sample the long term systems study he manages for one of his master's projects:
Hello all, the @WiscWeeds team is taking over the NCWSS Twitter account this week (June 12-16, 2023). Stay tuned for Weed Science updates from Wisconsin!
Lots going this week which started with a big POST spray day, including Arsenijevic’s spray deposition study:
The current moisture stresses are certainly giving growers a headache, but on the bright side these conditions are providing a great opportunity to challenge the Systems Trial!!
We would like to invite all interested parties to join us Thursday June 15 for the 2023 #WiscWeeds Integrated Giant Ragweed Management Plot Tour at the Rock Co Farm (200 US-14, Janesville, WI) starting at 9:00AM.
Questions? Please contact @arnaman6
One of the most impactful & gratifying pictures I’ve taken depicting the impact of our #WiscWeeds efforts.
The farmer, standing on the side of the field where a new practice is being implemented (soybean planting green), looking at how it was always done (conventional tillage):
Told @ZaimUgljic I had the best birthday present for him today of collecting biomass and terminating some cereal rye cover crop. Poor guy thought I was joking...
.#plant23 & #spray23 commenced yesterday for the #WiscWeeds team. @derff53 planted soy trials @ Arlington & will plant more @ Brooklyn today. Corn trials will be planted Friday.
@arnaman6 & the team are out terminating #covercrops & applying PREs. Have a great field season y’all
We seek to hire a Weed Ecologist (Assistant Professor) to provide leadership in weed science teaching & novel ecological weed management research @UWMadison! @UWMadAgronomy @UW_Hort @UWMadisonCALS

Please help us get the word out!
When I asked @arnaman6 some questions about making an extension video for the @NCWeedScience he said “be creative!” Here’s how it turned out.
Concerned about herbicide carryover with interseeded cover crops? Try a ... https://t.co/lJlcIhNR58
Thanks to all involved! @WiscWeeds
Had an incredible time attending my first professional society meeting and presenting my first-ever research poster. The @NCWeedScience 77th annual meeting proved to be one for the books. Could not have done it without @WiscWeeds and crew. Looking forward to next year already!!
Very proud of our grad students!

End of season view of our 2022 #WiscWeeds soybean planting green study comparing chemical (glyphosate, clethodim & quizalofop) versus mechanical (roller-crimper) termination of high biomass cereal rye #covercrop:
Had the great opportunity to share lunch with Mrs. Linda Harvey. Her late husband, Dr. R. Gordon Harvey, was a Weed Scientist at UW-Madison (1970-2001) @UWMadAgronomy and is honored through a fellowship I received. It was great learning about Dr. Harvey’s legacy! @WiscWeeds
