WRMLM Receives Award for “Outstanding Educational Material” (12-02-05)

The National Corn Growers Association’s (NCGA) Weed Resistance Management Learning Module (WRMLM) received a Certificate of Excellence Award from the American Society of Agronomy for the educational benefits WRMLM provides.

The certificate, awarded to Brent Brueland of Adayana’s Agricultural Solutions Team that designed the program, recognizes “the development of outstanding educational materials in the category of Computer Software.”

NCGA’s WRMLM is an online, interactive Web application that provides growers, media, seed dealers and the general public to gain more information on managing weed resistance.

“This is great recognition for the Weed Resistance Management program,” said Nathan Fields, NCGA director of research and business development. “NCGA’s work with Brent Brueland and Adayana has been a mutually beneficial relationship in producing learning materials for corn growers.”

In addition to the WRMLM, Adayana also produced NCGA’s Insect Resistance Management tool. The WRMLM has been on NCGA’s Web site since April. It is supported through checkoff dollars and industry support.
