Controlling Nutsedge Can be Challenging by Mario Villarino
April 12, 2024 – Controlling nutsedge can be challenging because of its extensive rhizome system. Cultural methods like regular mowing and hand pulling can help, but herbicides are often necessary.
Pre-emergent herbicides can prevent nutsedge seeds from germinating, while post-emergent options can kill existing plants. However, repeated applications may be needed for effective control.
It’s also important to improve soil drainage and fertility to discourage nutgrass growth.
For more information on this or any other agricultural topics please contact the Hopkins County Extension Office at 903-885-3443 or email me at [email protected].

Jennings Deeper in Hot Water as Stolen Boat Recovered in Yantis Linked to Local Suspect
April 11, 2024 – Everett Jennings, currently in custody in Hopkins County Jail, has been linked to a stolen watercraft recovered in Yantis. Jennings was transferred from Galveston last week after returning from a pleasure cruise to the Galveston Cruise Port. Outstanding warrants held Jennings in the Galveston jail with bonds totalling $2.25 million until Sheriff Office personnel were able to transport Jennings back to Hopkins County.
Everett Jennings remains in the Hopkins County Jail with that same bond total as more charges may be coming as investigators working a separate case discovered a stolen boat in a storage facility in Yantis, Texas.
According to investigators, the theft of the boat had been linked to Jennings previously, and evidence found at the storage facility furthered their case. Investigators estimate the value of the pilfered pleasurecraft at over $200,000. No additional bond has been set on any additional charges as of Thursday evening.
The investigation into stolen cars, boats, and other items continues. The boat recovered was the same one investigators posted a reward offer from an insurance company several days ago. That did not yield any tips that led investigators to the discovery of the 2023 Malibu Wakesetter.
