Supporting Sustainable Permafrost-agroecosystems by Co-producing Knowledge with Alaskan and Siberian Farmers with the Permafrost Grown Project (Dr. Melissa Ward Jones)

Friday, January 28, 2022 12:00to13:00
Burnside Hall 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest, Montreal, QC, H3A 0B9, CA

A warming Arctic is benefitting the northern expansion of agriculture. Suitable land area within the discontinuous permafrost zone is expected to increase with opportunity to grow globally important crops. A warming Arctic is also driving the rapid degradation of near-surface permafrost that impacts ecosystems, communities, economies, and industry sectors. Understanding the interactions between permafrost and cultivation practices within permafrost-agroecosystems, has received little attention to date. The following presentation will discuss the evolution of high-latitude agriculture with a focus on the Greater Fairbanks Area, Alaska, USA and provide an overview of the recently funded Permafrost Grown Project.
