A Landowner’s Management Workshop will be held from 5:30-8:45 p.m. April 20 at the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service office in Bexar County, 3355 Cherry Ridge, Suite 208, in San Antonio.
“This workshop is intended to provide landowners helpful tips to combat weeds and or brush on their properties that are now emerging with the warmer weather and through the summer months,” said Troy Luepke, AgriLife Extension’s Bexar County program coordinator for water and natural resources. “The program also will provide methods to combat the feral hogs.”
Attendees should RSVP to Angel Torres at 210-467-6575 or matorres@ag.tamu.edu. Registration is $20, payable by cash or check at the door.
Dr. Bob Lyons, AgriLife Extension range specialist from Uvalde, will discuss weed and brush control for wildlife habitat. Josh Helcel, AgriLife Extension associate for wildlife and fisheries sciences from Gatesville, will follow with a talk on feral hog abatement for landowners. The program will offer two Texas Department of Agriculture continuing education units – one general and one integrated pest management – for private pesticide applicators.
