Hello,
I am Alexander White, a senior agronomist with 30 years of experience as a vegetable grower.
Throughout my career, I have gained extensive knowledge and expertise in cultivating vegetables in various settings such as nurseries, greenhouses, open fields, and even in non-soil substrates using chemical pesticides, organic and biologic methods.
My goal is to share my knowledge and expertise with individuals who require it, such as farmers living in developing countries, as well as self-sustained growers. You can find more information by reading my blog, pictures and courses on Udemy.
