Postdoc opportunity in Dept. of Soil Science at UW-Madison working with on-farm #nitrogen management. This position will work on projects connected to DATCP's Nitrogen Optimization Pilot Program. These projects are on-farm trials that address some aspect of nitrogen management.
Duties include working with (i) existing nitrogen fertilizer response data to develop research publications and related materials, (ii) current and future on-farm research projects for data collection, and (iii) Designing new on-farm experiments
It's a great project with the ability to collaborate with a lot of different people. Contact me directly ([email protected]) if interested.

Result I'm most hyped about: POXC ranked as the 2nd most important factor explaining soybean yield in our dataset.
#SoilHealth = #YieldGains??
ALT A bar plot listing "Variable Importance (Soybean Yield)" on the x-axis, and management factors, inherent factors, and soil health indicators on the y-axis. Latitude is the #1 ranked, POXC is second.
