University of Wyoming Extension entomologist Scott Schell has received the Wyoming Crop Improvement Association (WCIA) Excellence in Service Award for his contributions to the Wyoming seed industry.
Schell was selected for his efforts in diagnosing a complex of insect pests that devastated smooth bromegrass production in northern Wyoming over the last two years and for providing guidance on how management could retain that production opportunity.
“We are proud of Scott Schell and this recognition of his service to Wyoming agricultural producers,” says Kelly Crane, director of UW Extension. “Scott is an outstanding extension specialist with an unquestionable commitment to responding to the needs of Wyoming community members with technically accurate, relevant and engaging educational programs in entomology.”
