The Cornell Sustainable Cropping Systems Lab, led by Dr. Matthew Ryan, conducts research and Extension on topics including rotational organic no-till, agroecology, weed ecology, cover crops, and perennial grains. We conduct applied field research at the Musgrave Research Farm in Aurora, NY and through collaborations with farmers and other researchers throughout the Northeast. We work extensively with farmer advisors to inform our research and support engaged learning communities for organic field crop production in the state. We are a part of the New York Soil Health program team.

We are in the Soil and Crop Sciences Section in the School of Integrative Plant Science in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences.
