Pennsylvania Invasive Species: Stubborn Weed ID and Management

March 7, 2025 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm EST

Pennsylvania has identified over 150  invasive plants, insects, pathogens, and animals that significantly  impact both the environment and agricultural production, resulting in  annual economic losses amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars. The  Pennsylvania Invasive Species webinar is committed to addressing this  critical issue. Throughout the session, we will  highlight some of the most problematic invasive species found in  Pennsylvania, examine their methods of establishment, and discuss  effective strategies to mitigate their spread. By delving into the  complexities of invasive species challenges, our goal is to empower  communities and spotlight the ongoing efforts led by state agencies.  Join us as we showcase ongoing efforts and empower communities to combat  this threat.

During this one-hour webinar, Dwight Lingenfelter, a Penn State Extension Weed Scientist, will highlight common and invasive weeds from around the region, covering identification, management strategies, and interesting facts, using images to illustrate the various species.

This event is being offered at no charge to participants.
