Carolina Farm Stewardship Association is offering a free, four-part webinar series on Organic Weed Management for Diversified Farms. Individual sessions address understanding weeds, proactive weed management, effective weed control, and developing an integrated weed-management plan.
Do you have weeds on your farm? Do you struggle with the cost of labor and equipment needed to manage weeds? Good weed management is important for optimizing crop yields, especially in diversified farming systems. In this FREE series, you will learn how to effectively manage weeds on your farm using organic practices and develop an integrated weed management plan for your operation. By the end of the series, you will be able to:
Identify weeds on your farm and the properties that make them challenging to control.
Identify appropriate strategies to control the weeds on your farm using organic methods
Develop an integrated weed management plan for different cropping systems on your farm (annual crops, perennial crops, pasture)
Participants are encouraged to attend all four webinars, as each session builds on the last. Registration is free but required. Please register for each session you plan to attend individually. Full session descriptions below.
