About this position

This postdoctoral research associate position at Texas A&M AgriLife Research is based in the Department of Agricultural Economics at Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas. The appointment is tied to a USDA-NIFA AFRI-funded project, “Adapting to Digitalization: Labor Market Access and Workforce Development in Tech-driven Agricultural Systems.”

The successful candidate will work closely with Dr. Maria Bampasidou and Dr. Yuri Calil as part of an interdisciplinary team that connects digital agriculture, data sciences, soil and crop sciences, and ethics. The project examines how emerging technologies such as AI, computer vision, drones, and autonomous decision tools are changing farm labor demand, skill requirements, technology adoption, trust, and rural communities.

The role is designed for a researcher who can bring together quantitative applied microeconomics and qualitative social science approaches. The postdoctoral scholar will help map digital divides in agriculture, analyze how those divides affect labor markets and workforce retention, and develop research that can inform both industry decision-making and public policy.

Day-to-day work includes designing and analyzing primary data collection tools such as focus groups, semi-structured interviews, and regional surveys across Texas and Louisiana. The project also includes scholarly writing, conference presentations, grant development, and translating findings into materials for producers, extension personnel, and industry partners.

The position offers the opportunity to contribute to collaborative, multidisciplinary research with faculty, producer organizations, and other stakeholders, while also assisting in mentoring Ph.D. and undergraduate students involved in the project.

Funding details

2-year position funded through grants or contracts; salary is $55,000/year, may be commensurate with experience.

What's required

A Ph.D. in Agricultural Economics, Applied Economics, Public Policy, Economics with emphasis on behavioral or labor economics, or a closely related social science such as Anthropology or Rural Sociology, completed by the start date is required. Applicants should have demonstrated expertise in applied research methods, strong skills in statistical and econometric software such as R, Python, or Stata, experience with qualitative coding software, evidence of scholarly productivity through published or accepted peer-reviewed articles or strong working papers, and strong oral and written communication skills for academic and producer audiences. A valid driver’s license and ability to travel independently for field research and focus group administration are required. Preferred qualifications include survey design, stakeholder-engaged research, mixed-methods research, advanced modeling techniques, familiarity with Southern U.S. agricultural systems and precision agriculture tools, and experience with interdisciplinary teams or cooperative extension programs.
