About

My research focus on whole plant physiology, nutrient management practices and cultural practices in blueberries and other small fruits,. I study how the diverse management practices affect plant physiology and determines yield and postharvest quality. Improving production practices will allow farmers to have a more efficient and sustainable production system while remaining economically viable.
