Cornell AES manages farms and greenhouses that support research but are also unique teaching tools for over 40 courses. This is the fifth story in a series about on-farm teaching; summer internships offer undergraduates immersive learning experiences.
A computer model analysis showed that global adoption of regenerative farming practices to improve soil health can benefit either greenhouse gas mitigation or crop yields but rarely both.
Adam Wild, director of Cornell University’s Uihlein Maple Research Forest and co-director of the Cornell Maple Program, says that while this year's "old-fashioned winter" has been beneficial for the season, new tariffs on Canadian products could hurt producers and consumers.
From drones that monitor crop health to plants that send text messages, middle and high school students at Cornell’s Expanding Your Horizons conference experienced firsthand how plant science and technology are shaping the future of agriculture on April 5 in Barton Hall.
A Cornell grape geneticist is leading a $2.3 million multi-institutional project to understand how genetically identical grapevines are influenced by varying environmental conditions in three states.
PI-eligible faculty can request up to $115,000 in CCSS Grant Preparation Funds to support the preparation of major external funding proposals with a substantial proposal process.
Andrew Novakovic is a professor emeritus of agricultural economics in the Cornell University College of Agricultural and Life Science, and says Sheinbaum’s plan may be good politics, but is drastically flawed in terms of policy.
A new study, published in Global Change Biology, presents five case studies that demonstrate how deep collaboration can transform crop monitoring, fertilizer use and water management to tackle the most significant challenges facing farming: water status, fertilizer systems and phosphorus recovery.
Researchers have created a computer model that can help produce farms and food processing facilities control COVID-19 outbreaks, keeping workers safe and the food chain secure.
