University of Missouri Extension’s Crop and Pest Management Field Day on July 10th is an opportunity to learn about best management practices for the most important weed, insect and disease pests in corn and soybean, said MU Extension weed scientist Kevin Bradley.

Bradley and his team will share results and recommendations related to weed management during the event at the MU Bradford Research Farm in Columbia. Participants will also hear updates on the status of herbicide-resistant Johnsongrass and waterhemp in Missouri. Bradley will discuss the implications of these developments on weed management in future production systems. There is a $30 fee for the event, which includes guided tours through the research plots, lunch and refreshments. Registration begins at 7:30 the morning of the 10th.
