Biography

Jeff has a Bachelor of Commerce majoring in Horticulture Management from Lincoln University.  He has worked in diverse roles including finance, orchard management, and technical extension for crop protection supply companies.  Since 2007, Jeff has been Bayer CropScience’s Regional Sales Manager for Lower North Island/Upper South Island, which has given him an excellent understanding of crop protection.  Jeff says “I believe there is a strong desire, not only within the grower community, but from all participants in the food production industry, to meet both domestic and global market demands of food safety, provenance and sustainability. Agroecology addresses these demands from all angles”.
