Emerging Soil Scientist: Chris Cobos

In a recent Texas A&M AgriLife Today feature, “Emerging Soil Scientist Cultivates Future in Cotton Sustainability,” writer Kay Ledbetter captures Cobos’ passion for tackling one of the toughest challenges facing producers today: sustaining cotton yields in the face of limited water resources.

Guided by Dr. Katie Lewis and collaborating with Dr. Gurjinder Baath, Cobos blends traditional agronomic practices with cutting-edge technology, from drones to AI-based analytics, to help producers make smarter, data-driven decisions about cover crops and irrigation. His story illustrates how the next generation of soil scientists is marrying field experience with digital innovation to reshape the future of cotton production.
