| Traditionally,
OIRED has worked in the area of agriculture, extending Virginia Tech’s
outreach mission overseas, particularly in developing countries. It
has helped with reforestation projects in Senegal, pest and pesticide
management in Ukraine, agricultural restructuring in Albania, and
natural resource management in Mali. Even as OIRED expands into development
areas beyond agriculture (such as IT and business incubation), it
continues to support innovative agricultural practices in such places
as Guatemala, Ecuador, Uganda, Bangladesh, and Albania.
