Welcome to the Purdue Agronomy Extension Web Site!
The mission of the Purdue Agronomy Extension group is to develop, integrate, and extend agronomic information and technology that is timely and relevant to the agricultural and environmental concerns of the citizens of Indiana, the nation, and the international community.
The Agronomy Extension group is diverse in its educational efforts. We represent interest areas of crop (corn, soybean, small grains, forages, canola) management, turf management, crop variety testing, crop diagnostics, soil fertility, soil management, environmental soil science, soil conservation, water quality, waste management, waste disposal, large area remote sensing, soil interpretation, and land use planning.
Links to information about a wide range of agronomic topics are listed along the sidebar column on the left side of this page. More recent publications and highlighted Web sites are listed below.
