2 Nutrient Management Jobs

As a seasoned agronomy professional, you will be responsible for demonstrating a deep understanding of carbon and nitrogen cycling in soils, specifically how regenerative practices such as cover cropping, reduced tillage, and organic amendments influence soil organic carbon sequestration, nitrogen mineralization, and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. You will lead a team of research associates in conducting thorough literature reviews on the impact of GHG emissions from rice, wheat, sugarcane, and maize cultivation in Indian farming systems. Your role will involve assessing the effects of regenerative practices on soil microbial activity, nutrient availability, and carbon-nitrogen interactions to develop effective land management strategies. In addition, you will be tasked with developing field experiment protocols aligned with project objectives and collaborating with national and international agriculture research institutes to conduct experimental field trials aimed at studying the impact of regenerative practices on various GHG emission sources and soil organic carbon pools. You will design comprehensive soil sampling strategies across diverse landscapes and management practices, ensuring accurate data collection and analysis. Your leadership in overseeing field teams during soil sampling and GHG measurements will be crucial in maintaining data quality and adherence to protocols. Furthermore, you will be expected to actively engage in scientific forums and conferences to share insights, build partnerships, and contribute to peer-reviewed publications advancing knowledge on soil carbon dynamics and GHG emission reduction strategies. Your ability to translate complex scientific findings into actionable insights for diverse audiences, including policymakers and field practitioners, will be essential. The ideal candidate for this role should hold a Ph.D. in Agricultural Research, Climate Change, Soil Science, or related fields, with 7-10 years of experience in GHG emissions research, soil microbiology, or agronomic practices specific to crops like rice, wheat, maize, or sugarcane. Proficiency in advanced data analysis and modeling software, strong communication skills, and a willingness to travel for fieldwork are also required. Desired skills include an understanding of climate change impacts on agriculture, experience with field trials and sustainable farming techniques, expertise in soil carbon cycling, and strong problem-solving abilities. Joining our team will offer you a competitive salary and benefits package, a key role in a fast-growing climate tech startup, support for learning and professional development, and a culture of creativity and collaboration.,
