Research

I carry out my research work at the CEIGRAM-UPM research center. Currently my research activity is focused on irrigation strategies and design of olive hedgerow orchards for sustainable production and quality. The results of these works have been published in peer-reviewed journals (cf Journal Citation Reports) and presentations in International and Scientific Congresses. I develop research and teaching collaboration activities in two new olive growing areas: Argentina (Mendoza and La Rioja) and China (Sichuan).

Teaching

  • Director of the Specialization course in Olive production UPM
  • In charge of :
    • 3th year of Agricultural Science and Engineering Degree
  • Responsibility of several courses as fruit trees and olive production
