ENVS 25 Agroecology

This course will introduce the principles of agroecology. Students will learn how classic ecological theories are applied to agricultural settings emphasizing biodiversity, plant-soil and biological control systems through group and independent project work at the Dartmouth Organic Farm. This course is intended to mimic real agroecological research. Thus, students will engage in question and methods development with multiple stakeholders (farm managers, other students and faculty), scientific collaboration, data collection, analysis, presentation, and peer review.
