NIFA participates in multistate research projects that involve scientists from multiple state agricultural experiment stations tackling high-priority topics that go beyond the scope of a single state.
A number of these multistate projects address agronomic and forage crop issues:
- Enhancing Nitrogen Utilization in Corn Based Cropping Systems to Increase Yield, Improve Profitability and Minimize Environmental Impacts (NC1195)
- Practical Management of Nematodes on Corn, Soybeans and Other Crops of Regional Importance (NC1197)
- Advancement of Brassica carinata (NC1204)
- Ecology and Management of Arthropods in Corn (NC246)
- Crop and Soil Research (NCAC1)
- Ecophysiological Aspects of Forage Management (NCCC31)
- Soybean Diseases (NCERA137)
- Management of Small Grain Diseases (NCERA184)
- Improving Forage and Bioenergy Crops for Better Adaptation, Resilience, and Flexibility (NE1710)
- Northeast Pasture Consortium (NEERA1603)
- National Database Resources for Crop Genomics, Genetics and Breeding Research (NRSP10)
- Plant Genetic Resources Conservation and Utilization (S9)
- Cover Crops for Sustainable Southern Agroecosystems (S1085)
- Crops and Soils (SAC1)
- Cooperative Variety Testing Programs (SCC33)
- Crop Diversification Opportunities to Enhance the Viability of Small Farms (SERA45)
- Optimizing and Characterizing Sustainable Beef Cattle Production in Forage Based Systems on Western Rangelands (W3012)
- Microirrigation: A Sustainable Technology for Crop Intensification and Improved Crop Productivity (W4128)
