Intérêts de recherche
Depuis mon arrivée à l'Université de la Saskatchewan en 1990, j'ai supervisé la recherche de plus de cinquante étudiants diplômés motivés ayant des intérêts de recherche divers. Les questions de recherche ont porté sur le commerce international, l'utilisation des terres, les risques et l'économie de la production, la salubrité des aliments, l'économie de la nutrition, les changements climatiques, la sécurité alimentaire, la réglementation agricole, le marketing agricole, le transport des céréales et divers aspects de l'innovation agricole. Depuis une dizaine d'années, je me concentre sur l'économie de la recherche, de la gestion de la propriété intellectuelle et des systèmes d'innovation.

Sujet :
Strategic Investment and Entry Decisions for Soybean Breeding in western Canada
Direction
Sujet :
The role of supply-chain networks on the adoption of soybeans
I am in charge of objective 5, usually referred to as GE³LS, which aims at maximizing the innovation potential of the genomics research by undertaking complementary research to address other important constraints to the development of soybean industry. The socio-economic research will identify grower information needs, research funding models, and grain transportation systems that can increase soybean adoption and drive long run soybean industry growth.
I am also involved in bringing deliverables from objectives 1-4 to growers and the industry. I will help to accelerate adoption of soybeans in western Canada by producing and disseminating information and data through seminars, technical reports and extension materials. I will also collaborate with grower and producer associations to foster innovation and the long-run development of the Canadian soybean industry.
