Weedy Rice Field Meetings August 1st and 2nd

Jul 24, 2017
  • Learn how to identify weedy rice
  • Learn to differentiate weedy rice from other grassy weeds
  • See what weedy rice looks like in the field

UCCE Rice Farm Advisors will be at two weedy rice locations to show growers, PCAs and other interested parties how to spot and identify weedy rice before it is headed. Weedy rice samples will be available for inspection and comparison with other weeds. We will observe infested fields from the field's edge, so no boots required.

Stop by any of the locations below between 8:00 and 10:00 am. Looking at samples and fields will take about 20 minutes.

Dates and locations:

August 1
Intersection of Old Hwy 99 and Comet Ln (south east corner), Maxwell, CA
 
August 2
Vernon Rd, 1.5 miles south of West Catlett Rd, Nicolaus, CA

Time: Between 8:00 and 10:00 am
