Horticultural scientists conduct research on temperate fruits and vegetables of importance to New York agriculture, and on all kinds of seeds. Additionally, scientists are attempting to find ways of improving yields, providing uniform maturity, incorporating pest resistance into new varieties, and producing a high quality fresh or processed product. The horticultural scientists collaborate closely with scientists at the Station, Cornell University, and around the world to incorporate technological advancements into production systems that are adapted to New York growing conditions and that are environmentally safe.
