Project Name : NCDA&CS Border Belt Agricultural Research Station
Description : The Border Belt Research Station in North Carolina primarily focuses on genetic studies and crop management for crops such as corn, soybeans, peanuts, and tobacco, with research on yield, quality, disease resistance, and crop rotation practices. The region's climate challenges include the variability of Southeastern weather, which can influence disease development and crop performance. This is supported by facilities such as greenhouses, curing sheds, and storage buildings that facilitate experimental crop and tobacco research. Its infrastructure includes multiple curing units, greenhouses, a pack-house, and specialized buildings for crop analysis, all designed to support comprehensive research that benefits local farmers in improving crop yields, quality, and sustainability.
