MADISON, WI, October 23, 2008 The Soil Science Society of America (SSSA) presented the following 2008 Awards during their Annual Meetings on Oct. 5-9 in Houston, TX.

  • Bruno Basso, University of Basilicata -- Lloyd R. Frederick Soil Teaching Travel Study Award. Bruno Basso is an Associate Professor in the Department of Crop Systems, Forestry and Environmental Sciences at the University of Basilicata in Italy. He is also Adjunct Professor at the Kellogg Biological Station at Michigan Station University and Queensland University of Technology in Australia. Dr. Basso received B.S. and M.S. degrees from the University of Naples in Italy, and his Ph.D. degree from Michigan State University. Dr. Basso field of research is Precision Agricultural Systems with specific interest in the development and application crop simulation models to assess causes of spatial and temporal variability of yield and to identify soil management strategies to increasing crop productivity and water use efficiency. He was the 2007 recipient of the SSSA L.R. Ahuja Ag Systems Modeling Award.

The Lloyd R. Frederick Soil Teaching Travel Award is designed to assist top soil science instructors, so they may have a foreign study travel or sabbatical experience. The program will help support the profession of soil science, encourage international teaching experiences, and benefit countless students of the instructors participating in the program. The awarded is supported by gifts to the Agronomic Science Foundation.

  • Qingli Ma, Environmental & Turf Service, Inc -- L.R. Ahuja Ag Systems Modeling Award. Qingli Ma is an environmental hydrologist in the Environmental & Turf Services, Inc. in Maryland. Dr. Ma received a B.S. degree from Shandong Normal University, M.S. degree from Zhejiang University, and Ph.D. degree from the University of Georgia. His program focuses on computer simulation modeling of water, pesticide, and nutrient transport in agricultural a
