A new statewide public opinion survey released today shows that Nebraskans overwhelmingly want major, long-term state investment in quality child care and early learning – and they want it now. The survey, conducted in early 2024 by We Care for Kids/Por todos los niños and Nebraska Extension, asked Nebraskans whether they were willing to put significant state resources toward child care.

Online mapping service helps protect workers, sensitive crops, pollinators
LINCOLN– Pesticides are used in agriculture to help farmers protect crops from pests, diseases, and weeds. Some crops, like fruit and vegetable specialty crops, and the pollinators of those crops, can be sensitive to pesticides. That’s why the Nebraska Department of Agriculture (NDA) contracts with FieldWatch™, an online mapping service designed to help pesticide applicators, commercial specialty crop growers and beekeepers communicate with one another to protect crops and pollinators from pesticides. Pesticides include all categories of pest control products such as herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides. 05/08/2024 12:00 AM
