Adam Brockman with the Nebraska Department of Agriculture was here the week of November 22, 2021 to do the evaluation of the Weed Departments books. Adam will submit his evaluation after he receives the annual reports. In addition to the evaluation, Adam Brockman and Bill went and looked at the Canada Thistle Rust treatment at the John Hammerlun property. It appears the treatment has done its job as no rosettes are found. Bill has been notified that Round Up and Triclopyr could possibly be a shortage next year. Information on the following list of twelve noxious weeds found in Nebraska can be located at the neweed.org website with sufficient information on each noxious weed. Canada Thistle, Musk Thistle, Plumeless Thistle, Purple Loosestrife, Spotted Knapweed, Diffuse Knapweed, Saltcedar, Phragmites, Giant Knotweed, Japanese Knotweed, Sericea Lespedeza, Leafy Spurge.
