Teaching
I teach in ecology, crop protection and sustainable cropping system primarily on the Agronomy programme with a soil and plant specialisation.
Students interested in writing their bachelor or master thesis on crop protection against insects, beneficial insects or diversified cropping systems are welcome to contact me.
Extension
Knowledge transfer about cropping systems and ecosystem services for SLU Centre for Organic Food and Farming.
Representative for SLU in the Swedish Plant Protection Council.
