5.2 Learning Materials

University of Wisconsin’s Vince Davis has put a very nice presentation together for Certified Crop Advisors that addresses many aspects of crop and weed competition. Rather than duplicating his efforts, we will briefly highlight each of the aspects he teaches about so you know what to pay close attention to in his video clip.  We have included a file with his slides in Carmen, which you may want to use to take notes on, as you follow along.  In this chapter, we will also ask you questions which require you to correctly apply the concepts Vince describes to some real life scenarios.  Watch the 30 minute presentation below. Please note, in the presentation Vince Davis will refer to the “Critical Period of Weed Competition” which is also commonly called the “Critical Period of Weed Control”.
