Impact Reports
Northern Harding County and areas of southern Union and Colfax counties are experiencing severe loco infestations. Loco is a sporadic toxic weed that prevents problems when you get fall and spring moisture. Agent and Union county agent and two NMSU brush control specialists presented loco weed workshop to over 40 particapants from Harding, Union, and Cofax counties. Research plots were set up the first day to test 4 differnent chemicals on loco control over the next several years. On day two, presenters discussed biological control, loco history, affects on cattle, chemical spray methods, and answered numerous questions. The overall objective was to show producers how to use broadcast fogging systems to control loco economically. As a result, producers can increase their revenue by 25% by controlling loco in severely infested areas. Producers can increase their calving percentage by at least 25-50% by contolling loco.
