Generally, issues of this newsletter are focused on one topic or several burning contemporary issues. This newsletter is deliberately unfocused. Our intent with this issue is to provide our readers with a sampling of the many research and outreach projects ongoing in the Department of Soil and Crop Sciences and affiliated research stations and provide contact information for those projects. Because of length considerations, this newsletter is not intended to be a definitive list of all departmental or station activities, only a sampling to provide you with an idea of the work conducted by faculty and staff here and by collaborating departments and agencies. Most of the projects summarized here are partially or fully funded by the Colorado Agriculture Experiment Station. Faculty and staff are continually appreciative of this funding as they strive to serve the citizens of Colorado in finding improved methods of producing food and fiber while better understanding and protecting our environment. Feel free to contact the primary researcher to get more information on their project.
