Lewis & Clark Moodle

In this course, we will focus on agroecology as a research discipline and production practice, and will focus on making explicit links between ecological theory, ecological principles, and empirical studies that contribute to the design and management of sustainable agricultural systems. We will also touch on the long-term goals of achieving agroecosystem sustainability through economic, social, and ecological contexts. Through reading, analyzing, and discussing interdisciplinary primary literature, students will explore the interactions between crop production and ecological and social systems. Students will work in teams to write a full research proposal on any topic related to agroecology.
