Deploying satellite-imagery based machine-learning models for large-scale mapping of tillage practices
State-wide mapping of soil-health indicators and related agricultural practices is key to tracking our progress towards improving sustainability of agriculture. While this information and low-cost…
Quantifying Synergies Among Soil-Based Carbon-Drawdown Approaches
Very large quantities of carbon dioxide (CO2) will need to be removed from the atmosphere over the course of the next century or two to…
Tracking the Tango Between Tillage, Soil Health, and Weeds
Tillage is a crucial stage in annual agricultural systems that terminates overwintering vegetation, incorporates plant residues, and prepares the soil for crops. These activities degrade…
Integrative analyses of pome fruits associated microbiota for decay prevention and health benefits
Microbiota associated with fruits are strongly affected by agricultural practices, but there is only sparse data available on fungal and bacterial diversity in biologically intensive,…
Increasing legume nodulation for improved symbiotic nitrogen fixation
We have identified a gene from Sinorhizobium medicae that substantially increases nodulation of Sinorhizobium meliloti on barrel medic and Rhizobium leguminosarum on pea and increases…
