Dear colleagues, Please share this exciting MS position in agronomy and row crop agriculture with interested undergraduates.
The Judd Hill Foundation Research Fellowship was established at Arkansas State University through collaboration with the College of Agriculture and Technology and USDA-Agricultural Research Service. The success of Arkansas row crop agriculture depends on continual improvement in agricultural and economic systems implemented by qualified, applied agriculturalists from Arkansas Universities. This fellowship is in response to the importance of graduate level education related to sustainable use of soil and water resources in commercial crop production and protection in eastern Arkansas. The recipient of the fellowship would work as an associate in a research program directed at solving problems in managing soil and water resources for commercial cotton production in northeast Arkansas. Field research and educational outreach programs at the Judd Hill Foundation Farm (located in Truman, AR) must be a central focus of the Fellowship program. The fellowship recipient would begin studies in Agriculture or Environmental Studies at Arkansas State University in the 2017/2018 academic year. Field work could begin as early as May 2017. The fellowship is granted for two years and compensation includes tuition, fees and a salary of $18,000 annually.
