S10 E7 - The HERMON Project
Sarah & Joe sit down with Dr. Eric Patterson from Michigan State University to chat about the The HERMON (Herbicide Resistance Monitoring Network) project. This project aims to create a network of researchers to develop and share new resistance tests and management strategies. The project includes 10 states and focuses on key herbicides like glyphosate, PPO inhibitors, and dicamba. Link mentioned in the episode: https://www.seedworld.com/us/2025/06/19/a-unified-front-on-weed-resistance/
Sarah, Joe, and Alyssa are three Extension weed scientists on a mission to help their audience understand what it takes for farmers to fight the war against weeds.
Funding for the podcast is provided by the North Central IPM Center, on of four regional centers funded by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Institute of Food and Agriculture (NIFA) to promote and facilitate the adoption of effective integrated pest management (IPM) strategies.
