Come participate in a discussion with Drs. Wulfhorst and Huggins on the social and technical aspects of achieving sustainable agro-ecosystems.

Worldwide, soil degradation is a quiet crisis that threatens the sustainable intensification of agriculture. Soil degradation is symptomatic of the failure of agriculture’s adaptive capacity and can lead to unintended transformational consequences. What are farmers in the Pacific Northwest doing to achieve sustainable agro-ecosystems? How can/are universities playing a supporting role in this respect?
