A Gallery of agricultural and natural resource scientists
If there is one thing you should take from this course, it is that modern agriculture is about far more than farming. No matter what your interests are, there is scientific research taking place in agriculture that will appeal to your curiosity. To give you a better idea of the diversity of topics in a modern agricultural college, I provide below a gallery of videos featuring OSU agricultural scientists. Here you will find scientists studying an astonishing variety of subjects. Please peruse them in search for the topic of most interest to you.
