Agricultural chemicals like fertilizers are key to American agriculture's abundance — but they come with a plot twist: unintended consequences. New research from across @u_nebraska in detecting and mitigating unplanned impacts from chemicals and microbial pathogens is helping improve the safety and well-being of all Americans. "We all depend on a successful and healthy American agricultural system. Disruptions caused by chemical interactions or pathogens can have downstream effects. Nebraska researchers are making substantial impacts across all these areas." — Meghan Jackson, NSRI and @UNL_IANR director Read our feature ➡️ nsri.nebraska.edu/news/news-… #AgSecurity #NationalSecurity #Agriculture #CBRN #CWMD #HomelandSecurity

Nebraska’s strengths were on full display recently, as state and national leaders gathered in Omaha to explore the future of the bioeconomy — and what it will take for the United States to remain competitive in a rapidly evolving global landscape. As one of the nation’s top agricultural producing states, Nebraska sits at the center of one of the most productive agricultural systems in the world, where production agriculture, manufacturing, affordable energy, top research universities, and an emerging start up ecosystem are converging to drive the future of the U.S. bioeconomy. 🗞️ ianrnews.unl.edu/article/sta… 🔗 nsri.nebraska.edu/faes #NationalSecurity #AgSecurity #Bioeconomy #AgResearch #HomelandSecurity

Technological #innovation will bring important new benefits to #agriculture, and the nation’s land-grant universities are central to advancing that progress, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s chief scientist said in an April 28 Heuermann Lecture at @UNLincoln. Scott Hutchins (pictured), the USDA’s under secretary for research, education and economics: “The sustainability and continuance of what land-grants provide to agriculture has been unbelievable, and it has been the reason we have been successful."
