 | New Mexico Battles Weeds Partners Deliver Punch

Like every state, New Mexico faces many natural resource challenges. The invasion of noxious weeds is one of those challenges. The New Mexico Department of Agriculture has managed to successfully address this challenge using the state, federal and local partnerships created through cooperative weed management areas.
The past two years, especially, have shown the success of the cooperative weed management areas. Collectively, the fifteen areas have obtained over 1.2 million in county, state, federal, and private funding. The large majority of these funds have been used for on the ground noxious weed control work. As a result, 10,375 acres of noxious weeds have been treated throughout the state.

Meet Me in Montana

Lisa Knauf, OK
Oklahoma has been a participant in NASCA meetings for many years. We find the opportunity to network with peers and share successes and challenges invaluable. I’ve had the opportunity to participate in the “Field Staff Sharing” session for the past three years. Each time I returned with my “batteries recharged” and loaded with new ideas to improve my assistance to our conservation districts. This year I’m thrilled to be bringing the newest member of my team to Ray’s session. And besides who wouldn’t want to be in Montana in early fall!!!
