Welcome Dr. Emma Tracy to the AOSCA Community

Please join us in welcoming Dr. Emma Tracy, Director of Seed Programs in the Department of Soil and Crop Sciences at Colorado State University.

Dr. Tracy was born and raised in Fort Collins, Colorado, and is excited to return to the Mountain West. She comes from a family deeply rooted in agriculture, with farming operations in Colorado, Iowa, and Nebraska.

She earned her B.S. in Horticulture from Colorado State University and her Ph.D. in Wheat Breeding and Genetics from Montana State University. Following her doctoral studies, she completed a postdoctoral appointment in Plant Pathology at Cornell University before returning to Montana as an Extension faculty member overseeing 4-H Agriculture programming. She later transitioned to managing the Montana Seed Potato Certification Program.

Most recently, Dr. Tracy served as a faculty member at the University of Vermont, where she taught courses in plant breeding and agronomy. In her new role at Colorado State University, she is excited to combine her professional passions for wheat production and seed certification.

Please join us in welcoming Dr. Tracy to the AOSCA community. We look forward to her contributions and involvement with our members across the certification system.
