Impact Report | Weed Identification and Management Program The agent was asked by the New Mexico Department of Transportation to present a program on “Weed Identification and Management” to DOT personnel from across the state at a Herbicide Application Workshop held at the NMDOT Training Academy in Roswell. The presentation covered plant classification, plant identification, and weed management principles. Approximately 40 DOT employees gained information about weeds and their management so that they could obtain a public pesticide applicator license through the New Mexico Department of Agriculture. NMDOT employees are an integral part of noxious weed management in New Mexico since they are on the front lines of weed management along the highways. Being able to identify noxious weeds and manage them correctly affects the spread of weeds throughout the state. |
