Biography
Douglas J. Munier serves Butte, Colusa, Glenn, and Tehama Counties as a Farm Advisor specializing in field crops production, with an emphasis on weed control. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Biological Sciences and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Chemistry from the University of California at Irvine, graduating with honors in research. Subsequently, he attended the University of California at Davis and earned his Masters Degree in Soils and Plant Nutrition in 1977. Before coming to Glenn County, Doug worked for the UC Cooperative Extension in Kern County for 17 years, the last 7 years exclusively with cotton, cotton plant mapping for improved cotton production, and the use of growth regulators on cotton. Doug recently returned from a one year sabbatical leave where he studied the use of global positioning equipment and geographical information systems software for use in site-specific farming, which will improve weed control in field crops.
