Adaptive Research
Adaptive research is also known as on farm research, and is conducted to validate, modify or calibrate a new technology on specific soil, climate, and social economic or environmental characteristics of a given area. In this type of research farmers play a key role in the research process.

Why going to an HBCU might be better for Black students’ health
March 24th, 20246
Attending a historically Black college or university (HBCU) as a young adult may be linked with better later-life cognitive outcomes for Black Americans, according to a recent study. The authors sampled 1,978 Black American adults who attended college between 1940 and 1980 (35% attended an HBCU), and who attended a high school in a state with an HBCU. The conclusion? There may be a correlation between collegiate environment and long-term wellness.
