Research summary
AI-generated

This researcher develops natural, plant- and mineral-based treatments (biofungicides and bioproducts) to protect tropical crops such as cocoa, plantain, and cocoyam from fungal and water-mould diseases. A central focus is using materials like oyster shell powder, neem, and local plant extracts to boost seedling growth and trigger the plants' own defenses, especially against black pod disease caused by Phytophthora megakarya. Much of the work is field- and nursery-oriented and applicable to smallholder agriculture.
