Dr. Amy Kaleita, Professor and Department Chair, Agricultural and Biosystems Engineering, Iowa State University, Ames, IA


Don鈥檛 Be Discouraged by Small Outcomes
Mitigating agricultural impacts on water quality is a 鈥渨icked problem鈥 with many overlapping systems and confounding objectives. Can robust agricultural production and environmental conservation happily coexist? Can we have it all? Can we have it all at the same time? Drawing inspiration from other wicked problems, this talk will address the optimist鈥檚 viewpoint that small victories are both achievable and important and will provide some examples of where and how these victories might be achieved.
