Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Lawton Lanier Nalley's research investigates the multifaceted impacts of agricultural practices and technologies on economic and environmental systems. His work includes studies on the economic and ecosystem impacts of genetically modified (GM) maize in South Africa, examining yield gains for human consumption versus livestock feed. Nalley also studies rice quality and its implications for food security and sustainability in Bangladesh, alongside an examination of consumer demand for broken rice and its food security relevance in Colombia. His research extends to understanding consumer valuations for child-labor-free chocolate and its connection to labor practices in cocoa production.

Furthermore, Nalley applies remote sensing methodologies to conservation agriculture, developing frameworks for rapid data generation, particularly for winter-time cover crop identification. He also focuses on the holistic valuation of public investments in agricultural water conservation. Nalley leads a research group and has a significant publication record, with an h-index of 29 and over 3,900 citations across 184 publications. He has collaborated extensively with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Alvaro Durand-Morat and Aaron M. Shew.
