North Dakota’s deer gun season opens Nov. 10 at 12 p.m. CT, and the state Game and Fish Department cautions deer hunters to be wary of ice conditions. In some parts of the state, there are already smaller and mid-sized waters that show the appearance of safe ice. Even though deer might be able to make it across, it doesn’t mean hunters can. Ice can form overnight, causing unstable conditions. Ice thickness is not consistent, as it can vary significantly within a few inches. Hunters walking the edge of a cattail slough will not find the sam...

By Marley Voll, Richland county extension agent. As harvest wraps up it is time to consider your fall weed management plan. There are many factors to consider including what your next crop will be, what weeds you are targeting, and what your crop rotation is. During the fall, winter annual weeds like cheatgrass, tansy mustard, and marestail germinate and begin growing. A study out of NDSU found that early rosette is when marestail control is most effective. The rosette stage can often be found in fields in late September and early October...

"The dhurrin molecule releases prussic acid when the plant is stressed....

"However, this decision can have long-term...
