Teng Yang

Teng Yang studies controlled-environment food production systems, focusing on hydroponics (growing plants in nutrient-rich water without soil) and aquaponics (systems that combine fish farming with plant growth using the fish waste as nutrients). Work in this area examines how factors like nutrient levels, electrical conductivity, water quality, lighting, and system design affect crop growth, nutritional quality, and food safety in vegetables such as lettuce, kale, tomato, and cucumber. This research is relevant to students interested in sustainable agriculture, controlled-environment horticulture, and resource-efficient food production.

Publication output has been steady over the last decade, averaging under two papers per year with consistent but modest annual activity rather than clear growth or decline.
