Associate Professor
University of Illinois
Dr. Margenot is a soil scientist and an Associate Professor at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, where he has since 2017 worked on soil fertility and nutrient management in Illinois and the greater US Corn Belt. His team takes a biogeochemical approach to understanding and managing the mechanisms that underpin soil functions in cropping systems. A large emphasis of this work is on soil organic matter cycling, and nitrogen and phosphorus use efficiency, and off-farm losses.
