Positions
- Adjunct Professor, Crop and Soil Sciences (CSS), College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS)
I am a crop scientist and agronomist with 30 years of experience with IRRI and CIMMYT, two CG centers working mainly on rice and wheat systems and conservation agriculture in South Asia. I am presently an adjunct Professor in CSS and also an International Professor teaching various courses on international agriculture systems, agroforestry and GMO`s. in August 2010 I became the new Associate Director for IP-CALS for academic and professional studies.
