Dr. Jose received his B.S. in forestry from Kerala Agricultural University, India, and his M.S. and Ph.D. in forest science from Purdue University. He is Editor-In-Chief of Agroforestry Systems; Associate Editor, International Journal of Ecology; and Associate Editor, Journal of Forestry. He recently served as a Fulbright Scholar (J. William Fulbright Scholarship Board and the U.S. Department of State), lecturing and conducting research in Bangladesh. Dr. Jose’s research program has the overarching goal of identifying and quantifying key ecological processes and interactions that define ecological sustainability. He examines how resource availability (light, water, nutrients, carbon) and disturbances (e.g. management interventions, fire, exotic invasions) influence ecosystem structure and function in agroforests, natural forests and plantation forests. He uses the ecological information in designing agroforestry systems and restoring degraded and damaged ecosystems. Over the past 20 years Dr. Jose and his research team have conducted studies in the U.S., Australia, Costa Rica, Belize, Bangladesh and India.

Research interests are focused on the biological interactions between trees and companion crops as they relate to the design of agroforestry practices. Areas of interest include Alley Cropping, Silvopasturing, Riparian Buffers and Forest Farming. In particular, research emphasizes the combining of trees and companion crops to optimize economic and environmental benefits.

Agroforestry related projects include developing repositories of pecan, chestnut, and hazelnut at the Horticulture and Agroforestry Center. We have established cultivar trials of pecan, and chestnut to help identify cultivars suitable to north-central Missouri. To investigate the nut yield and quality potential of chestnut, an intensively managed Chinese chestnut nut production orchard has been established. I am also active in the Missouri Nut Growers Association, the Northern Nut Growers Association, and the Chestnut Growers of America Association.
