Working as a corporate agronomist, Rebecca works on a global scale across a broad range of climates, practices and crops, from wheat and barley to cacao and olives.

Rebecca maintains a keen focus on sustainable farming, plant and soil health and combines this with an aim to provide practical farming solutions and share knowledge within the industry.
