K-State Extension will host a series of Weed Management Schools across northwest and north central Kansas from February 16–20. These programs are designed to provide producers, consultants, and ag professionals with practical, research-based updates on effective weed control strategies heading into the 2026 growing season.
Topics will include where not to cut costs on weed control, research updates on challenging weeds such as Palmer amaranth and kochia, and highlights from the 2026 K-State Chemical Weed Control Guide. Presenters include K-State Extension Weed Specialist Sarah Lancaster, K-State weed scientist Pat Geier, and K-State Northwest Area Agronomist Jeanne Falk Jones.
Meetings will be held on February 16 in Goodland, February 19 in Norton and Phillipsburg, and February 20 in Osborne. There is no cost to attend, but pre-registration is requested by February 11. More information and registration details are available at www.bit.ly/KSUWeedSchool.
