Extension Events
Nebraska Extension plays an important role in connecting producers with the latest research, resources and expertise from the University of Nebraska. With the growing season winding down, attention is already turning to the year ahead. Over the next several weeks, Nebraska Extension will be hosting a variety of events designed to help producers make informed decisions and prepare for the 2027 growing season.
Filling Extension roles
The University is taking a new approach to recruiting talent and keeping communities connected to its resources. Extension Educators play a key role in carrying out the University's Land-Grant Mission. Filling those positions has become increasingly challenging. Now, Nebraska Extension is expanding its search for talent and finding qualified candidates in some unexpected places.

Invasive plants after wildfires
Nebraska experienced one of its worst wildfire seasons on record this year, with an estimated 981-thousand acres burned across the state. And while the flames have long since been extinguished, the recovery process is far from over. As ranchers work to restore damaged pastures and rangeland, another concern is beginning to take root, invasive plants that could threaten the recovery of those grasslands.
