Program Description:
Research program:
Crop-weed interactions; long-term cropping system effects on weed community dynamics and suppression; selection, persistence, and spread of herbicide-resistant weeds; mechanisms of herbicide resistance. Current research is characterizing the long-term effects of cropping system diversification on weed community dynamics and suppression in the Wisconsin Integrated Cropping Systems Trial. Related research is focusing on weed community dynamics in intermediate wheatgrass (Thinopyrum intermedium) systems. My program also addresses evolved herbicide resistance in giant ragweed (Ambrosia trifida), common waterhemp (Amaranthus rudis), and Palmer amaranth (Amaranthus palmeri) in Wisconsin.
Classroom teaching:
Agronomy 300 Cropping Systems; an intermediate-level, 3-credit course intended for students interested in crop production systems, the environmental impacts of crop production, agroecology, and sustainable agriculture. Topics include agricultural intensification, agroecosystem structure and function, aspects of technology adoption, soil erosion and conservation, tillage systems, weed ecology and management, nutrient dynamics and management, water quality, crop rotation, and cropping system diversification. The application of agroecological concepts and principles for the improvement of cropping systems is emphasized.
