Research Reports

Real questions, answered in the field. Drought. Disease pressure. Volatile markets. A changing climate. K-State College of Agriculture researchers are working through them — trial by trial, county by county, one season at a time.

Our faculty conduct research across nearly every area of agricultural production: beef and dairy cattle, swine, meat science, plant pathology, sorghum and wheat breeding, cropping systems, irrigation engineering, cover crops, weed science, entomology, range management, turfgrass and horticulture. This collection shares preliminary results, so Kansas producers, industry partners and fellow researchers don't have to wait for the next growing season to put new findings to work.

This work reaches further than any one field or one year. Every trial strengthens the partnership between K-State and Kansas agriculture, helps build more resilient farms and communities, and adds to a more secure global food system — grounded in research done right here in Kansas.
