Summary
As a dedicated and innovative Agricultural Scientist with a robust background in Horticulture, I specialize in precision agriculture and postharvest management. I hold a Master’s degree in Horticulture from the University of Agriculture Faisalabad, with a focus on Postharvest Management of Fruits and Vegetables. My research on the postharvest effects of Melatonin coating on lemon storage quality underscores my expertise in quality assessment and market strategies to maximize agricultural produce value.
In my recent role as an Agriculture Officer at Agrilift, I leveraged cutting-edge NIR Scanner technology to analyze 200 soil samples daily, enabling precise evaluations crucial for informed decision-making in crop management, irrigation, and fertilization. This experience has honed my skills in precision agriculture, data analysis, and smart farming, allowing me to optimize crop yield and quality effectively.
My practical experience extends to leading horticultural teams in significant landscaping projects, such as those at the University of Engineering and Technology and SA Group Housing Society. These roles have enriched my project management skills and demonstrated my ability to thrive in collaborative environments, contributing to initiatives like the Million Tree Project.
Additionally, I have a passion for academic content writing, with over two years of experience producing high-quality, well-researched materials across various disciplines. This role has sharpened my abilities in research methodologies, critical analysis, and clear communication.
I am driven by a commitment to advancing sustainable agricultural practices and am excited to explore new opportunities to apply my expertise. Let's connect to discuss how we can collaborate to achieve innovative solutions in agriculture and horticulture.
