研究领域
Debbie's research interests fall into two main areas: crop physiology and sustainable agriculture. Current research areas include: Exploiting resource use efficiency and resilience of ancient wheat species Sugar beet physiology and agronomy Impact of minimum tillage on soil structure and crop production Bioenergy from wheat straw: investigating differences between varieties and agronomic practices
