I thought I'd make a quick post today to share links to several recent articles in the trade publication "CAPCA Advisor". This magazine is targeted towards Pest Control Advisors (CAPCA = California Association of Pest Control Advisors) and is published every two months. Most issues of CAPCA Advisor have at least one article written by UC Cooperative Extension pest control researchers.
The magazine has a nice web interface with the last 12 issues of the magazine and here are links to four reports by UC weed science researchers:
April 2014 - Richard Smith, UCCE Monterey County
- Automated thinner/weeder for lettuce production
Oct. 2013 - Marcelo Moretti et al., UC Davis
- Degree of glyphosate and paraquat resistance in hairy fleabane changes with time of year
June 2013 - Richard Smith, UCCE Monterey County
- Weed control options for dry bulb onions
December 2012 - Richard Smith, UCCE Monterey County
- Weed control options for fresh market spinach
Take care,
Brad
