She has\u00a0a M.S. in Soil and Watershed Sciences from the University of Maryland, where she\u00a0studied using a forage radish cover crop to suppress weeds and cycle nutrients before no-till spring vegetables. She\u00a0conducted her\u00a0dissertation research at UNH investigating the agroecological trade-offs of using tarps to kill a cover crop and suppress weeds before no-till summer vegetables. Natalie\u00a0was drawn to this research after working on organic vegetable farms and as an organic inspector, where she\u00a0saw how destructive tillage can be on soil and how difficult it can be to manage weeds. She\u00a0is\u00a0currently a USDA-NIFA postdoctoral fellow researching whether simple agronomic manipulations like cover crop seeding density and species selection can increase soil carbon through greater root inputs and changes in microbial physiology.<\/p>\n\t<strong>WEBSITES<br \/>\n<\/strong><a title=\"Natalie Lounsbury's website\" href=\"http:\/\/www.notillveggies.org\/\">No-till Veggies<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"Natalie Lounsbury's website\" href=\"https:\/\/www.researchgate.net\/profile\/Natalie-Lounsbury\">ResearchGate<\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"Natalie Lounsbury's website\" href=\"https:\/\/scholar.google.com\/citations?user=ns6fWyoAAAAJ&amp;hl=en&amp;oi=ao\">Google Scholar<\/a>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Natalie Lounsbury Research Assistant Professor Agriculture, Nutrition, and Food Systems CONTACT INFORMATION 412 Kendall Hall natalie.lounsbury@unh.edu Natalie spent over a decade\u00a0investigating how to integrate cover crops and reduced tillage into vegetable production without using herbicides.
