Improving nitrogen fertilization recommendations in temperate agricultural systems
30 Oct
Public Thesis Defense of Thibaut Cugnon "Improving nitrogen fertilization recommendations in temperate agricultural systems" Summary Nitrogen fertilization in temperate arable systems must reconcile two competing requirements: providing crops with enough N to express their yield potential, and avoiding the environmental losses caused by excess mineral N in the soil.

Farmer preferences for agri-environmental policy design: experimental and behavioral evidence
27 Oct
Public Thesis Defense of Apoorva Vardhan "Farmer preferences for agri-environmental policy design: experimental and behavioral evidence" Summary Over the past decades, agriculture has made remarkable progress. Yet, these gains in agricultural productivity have also come with considerable environmental costs.
