Amber Moore

Amber Moore is an Associate Professor and Extension Soil Fertility Specialist at Oregon State University's College of Agricultural Sciences, Department of Crop and Soil Science. Her work focuses on applied research to improve nutrient use efficiency in large-acreage crops like grass seed, cereals, and potatoes, with secondary attention to minor crops (peppermint, berries, etc.).

Research emphasizes statistically robust soil fertility studies addressing Oregon's crop needs, including nitrogen mineralization, fertilizer response, and soil nutrient dynamics. She develops nutrient and lime recommendations to enhance sustainability and productivity. Her outreach includes Extension programs and collaboration with agricultural stakeholders.

Publications span 2004–2024, with recent work on dairy manure impacts, soil health indicators, and nitrogen cycling in semiarid systems. Key themes include greenhouse gas emissions, microbial community analysis, and long-term soil management strategies. While no awards are explicitly listed, her contributions to applied agronomy reflect significant academic impact.

Advising and grants are not detailed in provided texts, but her role as an Extension Specialist suggests involvement in applied research funding. She is affiliated with OSU's Agricultural & Life Sciences building in Corvallis.
