weed science course
This course equips you with essential weed science knowledge for temperate corn-soybean systems. You will learn to identify key invasive weeds, map and monitor infestations using GPS surveys, create multi-season integrated weed management plans combining herbicides, tillage, and cultural practices, and evaluate control efficacy to protect crop yields and manage resistance effectively.

What will I learn?
Gain practical skills to identify invasive weeds, grasp their biology, and optimise scouting timing in temperate corn-soybean rotations. Master mapping and monitoring techniques, develop integrated weed management plans across 2-3 seasons, and apply effective herbicide, mechanical, cultural methods, alongside prevention, sanitation, and resistance strategies to safeguard yields and minimise ongoing weed pressure.
