Eric DeBoer

Eric DeBoer is an Assistant Professor in the School of Plant, Environmental and Soil Sciences at Louisiana State University's College of Agriculture. His research focuses on turfgrass management, soil science, and plant stress physiology with an emphasis on winter survival strategies and advanced irrigation technologies. He is affiliated with LSU AgCenter and conducts applied research for agricultural and horticultural industries.

Key research areas include optimizing cultural practices for bermudagrass winter survival, evaluating nanobubble-oxygenated irrigation systems, and improving soil amendment techniques for centipedegrass sod establishment. His work bridges agronomic theory with practical applications in golf course maintenance and regional crop adaptation.

Recent studies emphasize long-term effects of oxygenated water on creeping bentgrass, thermal management of ultradwarf putting greens, and synergy between wetting agents and winter covers. His research often collaborates with industry stakeholders to address real-world challenges in turfgrass sustainability and environmental resilience.
