Biography

I am a Zootechnical Engineer with a Master's degree in Agricultural Systems, with a solid track record in agricultural research and development. Currently, I lead the Livestock and Pastures Program at INIAP's Central Amazon Experimental Station, where I specialize in the evaluation of sustainable strategies to improve livestock productivity in the region. My work focuses on the implementation of agroforestry and silvopastoral systems, the optimization of forage use, and animal nutrition, with a focus on environmental sustainability and adaptation to climate change.
