weed science course
This course equips learners with essential weed science knowledge for temperate corn-soybean systems. Participants will identify invasive weeds, map and monitor infestations, create multi-season integrated weed management plans, and implement smart chemical, mechanical, and cultural controls to protect crop yields and manage resistance effectively.

What will I learn?
Gain practical skills in identifying invasive weeds, understanding their biology, and timing field scouting in temperate corn-soybean systems. Master mapping and monitoring techniques, develop integrated weed management plans across 2-3 seasons, and apply effective herbicide, mechanical, cultural strategies, along with prevention, sanitation, and resistance management to safeguard yields and minimise long-term weed pressure.
