Professor
David Hennessy is a professor in the Department of Economics and Center for Agricultural and Rural Development, where he leads a program of research on industrialization in agriculture and the role of information in farm-level production decisions and in the provision of safe food. His research also investigates systemic risks in the agricultural sector. Hennessy received his bachelor's and master's degrees in agricultural science in his native Ireland at the University College Dublin, National University of Ireland. He received his Ph.D. in agricultural economics at Iowa State University in 1993. Before joining the economics faculty at Iowa State University, Hennessy was an agricultural economist and assistant professor at Washington State University. The Iowa State University College of Agriculture awarded the “Early Achievement in Research” distinction to Hennessy for the 1999-2000 academic year. He is a Fellow of the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association and has served as a co-editor of the American JOurnal of Agricultural Economics. In addition to his research efforts, he teaches courses in commodity market analysis, business economics, agribusiness management, demand and supply systems, and decision analysis.
