Recent Herbicide Research from the Great Basin
Please join us for this science-management discussion on the latest latest herbicide findings from three published papers on risks and rewards of indaziflam, applying indaziflam and imazipic together, and a review of post-fire seeding and herbicide treatment effectiveness, and will discuss implications for management.
Topics and presenters:
Brynne Lazarus, Botanist, USGS Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center, will discuss Risks and rewards of pre-emergent herbicide (indaziflam) to defend core sagebrush-steppe ecosystems under suboptimal precipitation.

Christie Guetling, Range Technician, USDA-ARS Eastern Oregon Agricultural Research Center, will discuss Does applying indaziflam and imazapic together improve restoration of annual grass-invaded rangelands? Link to paper: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1550742425000703
Matt Germino, Supervisory Research Ecologist, USGS Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center, will discuss A systematic review and meta-analysis of post-fire seeding and herbicide treatment effectiveness for controlling exotic annual grasses in the sagebrush biome.
