• Research Interests (300 words)

  I am interested in studying crop management strategy and crop-environment interaction of existing and emerging agronomic crops to achieve sustainable agriculture. I am also interested in novel approaches in crop science and testing them at the field level. Agronomy, crop physiology, seed science, and agricultural ecology are areas of my interest.

  
  
• Profile Question 1

  What was the first science experiment you ever designed? How did it turn out?

  
  
• Answer the question you selected for profile question 1 here (300 words):

  When I was in school, I tried to make a hand-operated mechanical generator for my school's competitive science project. The generator looked cool theoretically, but I could not make it work and had to dump the project.

  
  
• Profile Question 2

  What is the coolest thing you have discovered or learned about plants?

  
  
• Answer the question you selected for profile question 2 here (300 words):

  The coolest thing I have learned about plants is adaptation and acclimation. I am always fascinated by the ways plants have developed strategies for their survival in different conditions.

Hi, Potentiate Pandas! This is a great start. I have a suggestion for you regarding the temperature. Radish will like a bit warmer temperature than you are planning. Also, if you increase the temperature, the growth would be fast and you might be able to see differences between the treatments more clearly. I would recommend keeping the temperature between 65 to 85 degrees. All the best for the project.

Hi Brittany, Samiyah, and DarNeysia!

It was nice to hear from you. I am Nasib Koirala, and I will be in this team as a liaison. I am a master's student at The Ohio State University and my field of study is agronomy and seed science. I am excited to work with this team and I am looking forward to hearing more from you. Please feel free to ask any questions to me and your mentor throughout the project. 

Thank you
