Dr Yeongmi Jang |  Agriculture |  Best Researcher Award

PhD at  Chungnam National University, South Korea

Yeongmi Jang is a PhD candidate in the Department of Crop Science at Chungnam National University, Republic of Korea, expecting to complete her degree in August. Her research focuses on Ecology, and she has contributed to various scientific journals, including MDPI publications such as Plants, Agronomy, and Agriculture. Although she has not yet accrued professional work experience, her scholarly efforts have earned her a citation index of 19. Yeongmi is in the process of developing her professional network and contributions, with no current consultancy, publications, or patents to her name.

Profile:

Academic Background:

Yeongmi Jang will complete a PhD in August from Chungnam National University, focusing on Ecology. Although Yeongmi does not have work experience yet, their academic journey promises future contributions to the field.

Research Focus:

Yeongmi Jang’s research in agriculture predominantly explores the effects of environmental stressors and agronomic practices on crop growth and physiology. Key areas of investigation include the impact of long-term salinity stress on mono and mixed crops, and the role of magnesium and calcium sulfate in mitigating such stress in forage crops. Jang has also contributed to understanding the effects of planting density and nitrogen fertilization on forage rice growth in both reclaimed and conventional paddy fields. Additionally, their research addresses the optimal harvest times for maximizing forage value and yield of winter crops and forage rice in South Korea. This work aims to enhance agricultural productivity and sustainability in challenging environmental conditions.
