Applied Farmscape Ecology Field Day 2024
On August 13, 2024, the Hudson Valley Farm Hub hosted a half-day event at the farm showcasing the work of researchers from the Applied Farmscape Ecology Research Collaborative (AFERC).
This event was targeted at farmers, conservation professionals, land managers, and others interested in on-farm ecology to learn about the different research projects that occur at the Farm Hub and discussing their potential applications for farms and land in the region.
This year, the work that AFERC partners have and continue to conduct was featured. Event participants had the chance to learn about each project in the field, meet the researchers, and ask questions in this interactive workshop.
AFERC, a partnership between the Applied Farmscape Ecology Program at the Farm Hub and the Hawthorne Valley Farmscape Ecology Program, works together across disciplines with the goal of better understanding the complex interactions between on-farm habitats, biodiversity, and crop production in the region.
