Excerpt

National and international open-access agricultural research databases are needed to help solve problems at watershed, regional, and national scales, and to connect productivity, soil health, and environmental quality to food quantity and quality. There are some established, open-access agricultural research networks with extensive research data in the United States, but there is a major need to improve connections between those networks and the emerging data in order to address complex questions. Improving the connections and flow of information among agricultural research networks will enhance the scientific community's ability to simultaneously increase crop yield, sustainability of natural resources, and environmental quality, as well as food, feed, and forage quality, and thus human and animal health. Establishing a network of agricultural databases is crucial for facilitating information flow among different research disciplines. Doing so will also enhance multidisciplinary research opportunities and help build transdisciplinary teams that can provide answers to complex, whole-system research questions and thus solve some of the globe's greatest challenges.

GLOBAL CHALLENGES The ever-growing human population is facing one of the greatest challenges of the twenty-first century: to ensure the sustainability of agricultural and natural systems. Both are under the pressure of a changing climate and the increase in…
