Continued productivity gains from technological progress are crucial to maintaining the global expansion of agricultural production. However, efforts to make agriculture more productive must be balanced against efforts to increase its resilience to a changing climate.  Assistant Professor (Charles H. Dyson School of Applied Economics and Management), Ariel Ortiz-Bobea, an applied economist, whose research focuses on agricultural sustainability,seeks to determine whether global agricultural production has become more resilient to climatic shocks through quantitative research in farm productivity and climate data. Cornell Initiative for Digital Agriculture (CIDA), a faculty led initiative focused on creating a strong voice in the emerging area of Digital Agriculture (DA) invites Professor Ortiz-Boboa to present his research for the monthly CIDA Seminar Series.
