Status of western bursery herbicide screening project

I will present an overview of our Western Nursery Herbicide Screening Study. It is general knowledge among nurserymen that herbicides can provide effective and very economical nursery weed control. However, until this study was initiated no systematic program to document their safety, effectiveness and economy over a broad geographical area in the West was undertaken. There are 29 nurseries cooperating in this study: 14 in Washington, Oregon, and California, our Pacific Coast phase; 9 in Idaho, Montana, Utah, Nevada, New Mexico and Colorado, our Rocky Mountain-Great Basin phase; and 6 in North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado and Oklahoma, our Great Plains phase.
