-
Current Teaching/Research/Extension Activities:
-
Teaching
responsibilities include a course on Advanced Principles of
Agroecosystem Management, which emphasizes agricultural management
from a biological systems perspective. |
Research program
is broad-based and focuses on agroecosystem management using a
systems approach. |
Extension program
largely focuses on working with rice growers to develop
scientifically based management programs with the rice industry.
|
