Description
Summary:Effective outreach is critical to achieving success in managing herbicide-resistant weeds. Interdisciplinary collaboration is needed to adapt information delivery and to engage communities to address the herbicide-resistance problem. Weed scientists must partner with the production community to adapt herbicide-resistance practices for local needs, to work collaboratively with state and regional stakeholders to create effective resistance-management practices, and to provide an overarching national message as to the causes of, and solutions to, resistance.
