    KXplores Emerging Research: Cara explores risk navigation

    The last episode in our series with agricultural communicator, Dr. Cara Lawson, talks about how people navigate risk. Where do they go for information when faced with a crisis? And how do they know those resources are reliable? Cara, an assistant professor in the Department of Agricultural Communication, Education, and Leadership, studies the science behind the process of assessing information and how much time it takes to find vital answers. Knowing where people typically find and process important information helps communicators craft messages for sharing widely.

    KXplores Emerging Research: Cara develops a new measurement for her survey

    Demographic data – like age, gender, and location – are easy to quantify in a survey. But feelings, thoughts, attitudes? Social scientists use measurements to assess values, perceptions, and other non-tangible factors in surveys. Dr. Cara Lawson with the Department of Agricultural Communication, Education, and Leadership at Ohio State developed a new measurement for her national survey to test public perception of the farmer’s role in climate risk.

    Kxplores Emerging Research: Cara surveys a national audience on risk perception

    How do perceive climate risk? It may depend on where you live and what values you hold dear. Agricultural communicator Dr. Cara Lawson launched a national survey to learn more about how Americans feel about climate risks. She hopes to learn how personal values, type of community, and region where we live may impact those perceptions. Lawson, an assistant professor in the Department of Agricultural Communication, Education, and Leadership, was awarded funding for her research project from the new AgTech Innovation Hub, a collaboration between CFAES and Nationwide.

    KXplores Emerging Research: Haley and Jeff Sample Plant Tissue

    Research isn’t always planned. But when a community needs quick answers in a crisis, research and data can help inform decision making. Using Haley Shoemaker’s Ohio State University Extension connection to the community and research facilities at the Food, Science, and Technology Department in the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences, Haley and researcher Jeff Hattey developed a protocol to sample plant tissue after a train derailment in East Palestine.

    KXplores Emerging Research: Ashley tests pest management recs to aid pollinators

    Long standing Integrated Pest Management strategies are getting a makeover. Specialty crop entomologist Dr. Ashley Leach is validating those practices to find out what’s still working and what might need a tweak to protect pollinators. In the project with Dr. Reed Johnson, from the Department of Entomology, they’ve discovered some off target outcomes from reduced pesticide use. And Ashley dreams big that ugly produce from the grocery store finds a place in your fridge.

    KXplores Emerging Research: Ashley tracks the spotted lanternfly

    Invasive pest, the spotted lanternfly (SLF), has been reported in four Ohio counties and 14 U.S. states. The brightly colored red and grey leafhopper poses an economic threat to Ohio’s specialty crop producers. Entomologist Dr. Ashley Leach’s new research project detects SLF in the environment using biomonitoring, a process that tests for DNA left behind by the destructive pest. Early detection of the SLF could help producers better prepare and possibly reduce the damaging effects of SLF. Visit stopslf.org to learn how to stop the SLF.

    KXplores Emerging Research: Dom and Ed test shade grass cultivars

    Testing turfgrass cultivars for shade tolerance traditionally involves screens. But grass grows in a wide range of shade conditions in home lawns, golf courses, and stadiums. Dr. Dom Petrella from the Department of Horticulture and Crop Science and Ohio State ATI explains how he’d like to optimize testing methods with gels to create cultivars more suited to their actual growing environment. And colleague Dr. Ed Nangle chimes in for our Dream Big segment.

    KXplores Emerging Research: Dom and Ed research fertilizer recs

    Golf course turf management is a delicate balance between environmental factors, turfgrass varieties, nutrients, and pest management. Dr. Ed Nangle shares his latest research project focusing on recommended nitrogen rates for new turfgrass cultivars popping up at newly renovated golf courses. And Dr. Dom Petrella explains how undergrads get hands-on experience in turfgrass research at Ohio State. Both specialize in turfgrass science with the Department of Crop Science and Ohio State ATI.
