The next Agronomy and Horticulture seminar is March 27
Denize Istipliler, assistant professor, Department of Field Crops, Ege University, Izmir, Turkey, will present “Water or Wisdom? Tackling Agriculture Sustainability in Türkiye” on Thursday, March 27 at 11 a.m. CDT in Keim Hall 150 or streamed live via Zoom at https://go.unl.edu/seminars.
Turkey, the twelfth largest plant producer in the world, faces significant agricultural sustainability challenges: natural resource scarcity, particularly water, and technical shortcomings.
This presentation explores whether drought and water shortages are the main culprits or if gaps in knowledge, technology and management practices lie at the root of the problem.
