Tracing the Poison: Iowa’s paraquat exposure record

Field notes

The project’s research sequence begins with route logs from a 2015–2016 bicycle trip and compares them with Iowa GIS layers, FOIA records, and pesticide licensing databases. Its testimony component uses recorded, thirty-minute conversations with affected residents and agricultural stakeholders, while the proposed blueprint is meant to standardize exposure documentation. The site also lists two October 2026 Zoom sessions organized as an open-space unconference rather than a fixed speaker program.
