Bio
Alan Franzluebbers is a Research Ecologist with the USDA Agricultural Research Service. He has an adjunct appointment in the Department of Crop and Soil Science on NC State University campus. Research is conducted in soil ecology and management to develop a better understanding of soil organic matter properties and processes in conservation cropping and managed grazing systems, including silvopastures. He is exploring the value of root-zone enrichment of soil organic C and N as a way to distinguish management-induced influences from historical pedogenic processes.
