Droplet size is an influential factor in precision application technology. In his research, Breno Rodrigues is examining the accuracy of different droplet sizes to see how they might be applied to plants in the field. 💧

🇺🇸 As the USA heads into the #July4th weekend, it’s a great time to remind everyone: Help #stopthespread of #invasiveplants (and animals)! Weeds can hitch a ride on firewood, boats, fishing gear, hiking boots - even pets. #WSSA #weedscience #cleandraindry #playcleango

🎆 Some #weeds may look like fireworks - like the puffball of salsify or the starburst bloom of wild carrot - but don’t be fooled. 🔥 Dry, invasive vegetation + fireworks + drought = serious #wildfire risk. Celebrate safely this 4th of July! #WSSA #invasiveplants #weedscience

This year’s EWRS European Weed Research Society (EWRS European Weed Research Society) Symposium was a great meeting of #WeedScience community. Kudos to University of Lleida’s Weed Science team — it’s been a very productive conference. A few take-homes for me: - Plenty of innovative research topics,

Excited to share our latest work: “Influence of glufosinate mixtures on waterhemp control and soybean yield” by Nikola Arsenijevic et al. (2025) #Glufosinate alone provided effective #waterhemp control, so mixtures didn’t improve efficacy. However, as we continue to rely on
