West Lafayette, IN
- Crop Production and Pest Control Research: The Crop Production and Pest Control Research Unit conducts research to minimize crop losses due to insects and pathogens and improve soybean quality. Specific projects are directed toward discovering the genetic, biochemical, and molecular mechanisms that confer insect resistance in cereals, (More)
- National Soil Erosion Research Laboratory: The mission of the National Soil Erosion Research Laboratory is to develop the knowledge and technology needed by land users to conserve natural resources for future generations. (More)
- Livestock Behavior Research: The mission of the Livestock Behavior Research Unit is to develop scientific measures of animal well-being, through the study of animal behavior, stress physiology, immunology, neurophysiology, and cognition, that will allow an objective evaluation of animal agricultural practices.
