The USDA Long-Term Agroecosystem Research (LTAR) Network is a growing group of 18 long-term research sites working to develop strategies for sustainable intensification of agriculture. Collaboratively, they aim to address challenges including food insecurity, climate change, environmental degradation, and rural prosperity issues. This feature highlights several of the networks’ sites and their experiments, honing in on LTAR cropland site Lower Mississippi River Basin and grazing land sites Archbold-University of Florida and Central Plains Experimental Range.
