Dr. Alan Moulin

Dr. Moulin focuses on science which addresses the impact of crop rotations and input management on agricultural resilience related to soil properties and crop yield for agronomic systems, soil environments and climate change in Western Canada.  This research is conducted in the context of plot and field-scale studies of crop yield, soil properties, temporal and spatial variability related to typical Prairie landscapes and soils.  It provides producers with information to assess options to mitigate or adapt to the effects of climate change and manage their environmental foot print while maintaining economic return.  Elements of these studies include carbon sequestration, greenhouse gases, precision agriculture, and fertilizer management at a field scale which is relevant to producers. He applies a wide range of laboratory methods and scientific tools in holistic analyses which include models and machine learning, to these studies.
