The USDA-Agricultural Research Service (ARS) and Oregon State University at Pendleton OR, conduct research on dryland crop production and soil and water conservation. Together, our team is developing sustainable farming practices that halt erosion, protect air quality, conserve soil water, reduce farm inputs and enhance soil quality and soil health.
Mission
Provide scientific information that improves practices, techniques, and equipment for dryland crop production to serve the public. Research focuses on precision agriculture, soil and water conservation, sustainable agriculture, global climate change, and crop diversification in the Columbia Plateau and related land resource areas of limited winter precipitation and dry summers.
