RESEARCH FOCUS
I am currently active in three areas of study: (1) the stability of important physiological and market-based factors across genotypes and environments, (2) the control of phytonutrient accumulation for consumer and grower benefit, and (3) lessening specific challenges (e.g., nutrient management) associated with organic vegetable crop production.
EXTENSION
ACTIVITIES
Since 1996, I have delivered
more than sixty presentations in Extension programs (conferences, field days,
workshops, television) held in four states to approximately four thousand
program attendees. I have also led and contributed to the development of twenty
programs (field tours, conferences, workshops, roundtable discussions). I have
also provided research-based information in response to client questions in
numerous phone calls, E-mail requests, and office and farm visits.
INTERNATIONAL
EFFORTS
As part of Project Harmony (an
international professional and business exchange program organized by the Univ.
of New Hampshire and sponsored by the Community Connections Program of the
Office of Citizen Exchanges of the U.S. Information Agency), I organized and
executed the visit of two Russian scientists to Maine in 1997 and their meeting
with agricultural scientists and engineers, commodity organization leaders, and
potato processing industry officials.
