Crop and Weed Management/Physiology


Research is conducted on all aspects of managing Georgia agronomic crops and forages with the ultimate objective of developing systems that create sustainable profits while preserving the agricultural and natural resource base. Research on crop physiology is conducted to expand our scientific understanding of plant function and provide information needed to develop unique solutions to agricultural problems.  

Research Areas:

  • Corn, Soybean & Small Grains
  • Cotton Management
  • Cotton Physiology
  • Cropping Systems
  • Forage Management
  • Peanut Management
  • Peanut Physiology
  • Tobacco Management
  • Turfgrass Management 
  • Turfgrass Physiology
