CAFNR/MOAES Research Magazine: Making a Major Impact
A major focus of the Missouri Agricultural Experiment Station (MOAES) has been finding unique collaborations and partnerships to take research projects to the next level. Those partnerships come in many forms – and seeking out collaborations of all types is a primary goal of the newly restructured MOAES. The more than 500 acres that make up the Land of the Osages Research Farm, located on the western edge of the Lake of the Ozarks, were an estate gift from Doug Allen, who also established MU’s H.E. Garrett Endowed Chair Professorship in 2006 and passed away in 2017.

CAFNR/MOAES Research Magazine: Finding the Perfect Partner
Among its many strengths, the Missouri Agricultural Experiment Station (MOAES) provides research faculty with a wide variety of real-world conditions to test and develop strategies for agricultural production, based on the geographical and climatic differences in Missouri. These CAFNR laboratories also provide graduate students with ample opportunities to lead their own projects, while still providing the same important research findings for farmers and producers across the state. For example, Haylee Schreier, a senior research associate who defended her thesis and earned her graduate degree in May 2022, has used electricity to rid fields of weeds.
