OUR FELLOWS
Bukola Rukayah Aminu-Taiwo is motivated by a desire to make agricultural research more practical, suited to farmers’ needs, and effective at shaping public policies. Her ambition is to lead a research institution and devise policies that can increase farmers’ incomes, promote productivity, and enhance food security, while also protecting the environment.
All research in the field of agriculture must be geared toward problem solving. It should be taken to the doorstep of the farmers to inform the research process, increase farmers’ knowledge and improve their practices for better gains all along the food value chain.
Field of Research
If we want to eradicate poverty and malnutrition for the long term, we need both substantial improvements in agricultural productivity and sound management of natural resources.
