Biography:
Olga Walsh earned a Ph.D. Soil Science, Oklahoma State University, 2009 and M.S. Soil Science, Oklahoma State University, 2006 and a B.S. Soil Science, St. Petersburg State University, 1997 Research aims to increase productivity, resiliency, agronomic, socio-economic, and environmental sustainability of agricultural systems. Her research goals lie in working on finding research-based answers for problems ag producers are experiencing across the state of Virginia, the Mid-Atlantic and Southeastern regions, and beyond. Her especially interested in interdisciplinary projects aiming to sustainably increase productivity of cropping systems. Crop diversification and developing grower recommendations for grain crops with strong yielding potential are within the scope of my work. Water and nutrient efficient crops grown for grain and/or forage offer many opportunities to improve growers’ bottom line while conserving water, fertilizer, and enhancing soil health long term.
