Marcellus Shale landowner coalitions — their form, function and impact — will be the topic of a one-hour, web-based seminar offered by Penn State Extension at 1 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 23, 2018.
Presenting the webinar will be Grace Wildermuth, a Penn State doctoral degree student in the Department of Agricultural Economics, Sociology, and Education. She will discuss research from her thesis on landowner coalitions.

- coalition models and forms
- benefits and detriments of membership in a coalition
- best practices identified by members of coalitions
- specific effects of participation in a coalition for agriculturalists
- potential future applications of the landowner coalition model.
