The
September 2008 edition of the CTAHR Research News is now available for download. This month we feature the work of
Dr. Paul Singleton of the
Department of Tropical Plant and Soil Sciences. Paul's research focuses on "precision agriculture" using technology to provide growers with management tools to maximize the effectiveness of their inputs. Without knowing the specific knowledge needs of their plants, farmer's often over water or under water or over fertilize or under fertilize. Paul tells us growers can better control their costs and the effectiveness of the efforts while improving profits. We also feature new faculty who have joined the College recently, a story about the Molokai Taro festival, kudos for
NREM's
Dr. Gopal and our regular features - information about open grants, recent publications and grants received and the Calabash with useful information for you. We hope you will our newsletter.
