The Department of Agronomy's faculty, staff, and students embrace this challenge. We develop and utilize scientific understanding of plants that nourish humanity and provide other advantages. Agronomic crops primarily produce grain for human consumption, animal feed, or industrial processing. Livestock feed crops are cultivated to fulfill specific dietary requirements. Forage crops yield edible stems, leaves, and other plant components. Our work focuses on developing innovative approaches to enhance crop production efficiency and sustainability while maintaining environmental safety. Our research explores plant genetics, genomics, biochemistry, and physiological processes. We investigate relationships between farming systems, weather patterns, and ecological factors. Our priority lies in promoting sustainable agricultural practices—including precision, conventional, and organic methods—to minimize ecological footprints and protect Earth's inhabitants.
