ANNUAL CONFERENCE
45th Annual Conference
Bayous, Basins & Balance
October 26-29, 2026
Hilton Capitol Center
Baton Rouge, Louisiana
Our theme, Bayous, Basins & Balance, reflects the complexity of the systems we manage and the responsibility we share in maintaining them.
We welcome researchers, students, applicators, regulators, scientists, and resource managers to present and attend. You don’t have to be a professional speaker to share valuable work or insights — if you’re doing meaningful work in aquatic or wetland plant management, we want to hear from you.
This annual meeting is the most important gathering of aquatic plant management professionals in our region. The ideas exchanged here influence projects, partnerships, and priorities throughout the year. Don’t miss the opportunity to learn, contribute, and connect with colleagues who are shaping the future of our field.
