Dr. Bruce Maxwell and Dr. Marie
Jasieniuk, scientists from Montana State University, were
the first to develop a bioeconomic model designed to evaluate
crop yield and yield loss-weed density interactions for jointed
goatgrass in winter wheat. This model is designed to
predict the impact of various management options on jointed
goatgrass densities and net returns. The project was
completed in the fall of 2001 and the third scientific paper
will be sent to publication during the summer of 2002.
Currently, there are no jointed
goatgrass research projects being conducted in the state of
Montana. To suggest a research issue with respect to
jointed goatgrass in Montana, please contact Dr. Bruce Maxwell

Doug Schmale, the Extension
Coordinator. |
