Luoye Chen (pictured) is a Ph.D. student at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in CABBI Sustainability Theme Leader Madhu Khanna's lab group. Alongside the research team, Chen worked to develop an integrated modeling approach for assessing the economic and environmental feasibility of transitioning land enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) to bioenergy agriculture. This swap, while economically advantageous for landowners and the government, also promises significant fossil fuel mitigation in the long term.
