Natural Resources and Agricultural Sciences Program

In the Natural Resources and Agricultural Sciences (NRAS) Program we work at the interface between agricultural production and environmental quality. We research topics like agricultural land use practices, pesticide usage, agricultural chemicals in surface water and groundwater, soil health, and climate change. Collectively, NRAS programs serve to help protect public health and the environment while supporting agricultural viability throughout Washington’s diverse cropping systems.
