North Dakota weed control officials to meet
BISMARCK – Weed control officials from across the state will gather Tuesday, Jan. 5, for the 2016 North Dakota Agriculture Commissioner’s Weed Forum.
The forum is held in conjunction with the annual meeting of the North Dakota Weed Control Association (NDWCA), Wednesday and Thursday. Both events take place at the Baymont Inn and Suites, 2611 Old Red Trail, in Mandan.
“The forum is an opportunity for county and city weed officers and weed board members to network with weed scientists, pesticide industry representatives and state and federal weed control personnel to develop effective and cost-efficient weed control programs and strategies,” said Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring.
The forum will include presentations on biological control, organic farming, endangered species and the pipeline restoration and reclamation oversight program.
All sessions are open to the public.
