AgBiz Logic: Measuring Environmental and Economic Trade-offs of Agricultural Chemicals

The AgBiz Logic Center, located in the Applied Economics Department, is looking for capstone students to enhance AgBiz Logic, an environmental, economic, and financial online decision tool for agricultural producers. 

For this project we are looking for a team of students to link EIQ coefficients from the Cornell University decision tool to the AgBizEnvironment module, to measure the environmental impact of applying agricultural chemicals. Growers will be able to compare chemical applications and their economic benefits to the environmental impact. The following website is a link to the decision tool from Cornell University: https://cals.cornell.edu/new-york-state-integrated-pest-management/risk-assessment/eiq/eiq-calculator

Objectives


Transfer and integrate data from the Environmental Impact Quotient (EIQ) database from Cornell University into AgBizEnvironment for producer analysis. 

Motivations


From working on the AgBiz Logic project, you'll gain software development experience in a small team startup environment. Technical experience will include backend web development, relational database administration, and RESTful API creation and management.

Qualifications


Minimum Qualifications:

Experience with Python and Git. 

Preferred Qualifications:

Knowledge of Django, AngularJS, or JSON.
