Work experience
1. Wetlands Utilization Project in West Africa (1982-1992), worked with International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) for establishing sustainable crop production system by introducing rice-based farming system in the wetlands of West Africa._x000D_
2. Comprehensive soil fertility evaluation project (1984-1995), worked with IITA and Japanese universities for establishing comprehensive and quantitative method of soil fertility status for arable soils in the Tropics, I.e. East and West Africa, Tropical Asia and South America._x000D_
3. Environmental protection and agricultural reconstruction project in Kazakhstan, Central Asia (1992- present), working with Kazakh Institute of Grain Production and Kazakh Agrarian University for establishing sustainable land use strategy with emphasis on the environmental protection and stable food production under arid and semi-arid climate, i.e. Aral Sea region and Northern Kazakh Steppe region.
