Agricultural Engineering
Engineering for improved agriculture and resource efficiency
Big data and technology development converge in agricultural engineering research at the Texas A&M AgriLife Research and Extension Center at Weslaco. This research and development program focuses on solutions to a host of issues affecting irrigation efficiency, agricultural crops and natural resources.
- Deficit irrigation
- Salinity management
- Irrigation of bioenergy crops
- Infiltration and overland flow
- Irrigation of vegetable crops
- Hydrologic impacts of land and use practices in agricultural regions
- Modelling and optimization research for managing irrigation
- Irrigation and Management of surface, drip and sprinkler irrigation
- Water measurement of irrigation water
- Screening of drought tolerant and salinity tolerant crops
- Water use efficiency of bioenergy crops
- Remote Sensing (drones, mobile platforms)
- Crop Phenotyping
- Computer Applications
- Crop Modeling
