NEWSS Weed Science Contest
Collegiate Weed Science Contest
The purpose of the Northeastern Collegiate Weed Science Contest is to provide an educational experience from which students in Northeastern universities can broaden their applied skills in weed science. The contest provides an opportunity for weed science students to meet and talk with each other, be exposed to researchers from other universities and industry, and apply what they have learned. It is also hoped that the contest will increase the visibility of weed science and intensify the interest level of those participating in the discipline of weed science.
See below for current contest rules and archives of previous contests. For additional information, see the latest issue of the newsletter.
