Join us June 1st to meet our new ANR Educator

by at

  Help us welcome our new ANR Educator, Marina Miquilini at our  Meet and Greet on June 1st from 10am to noon in our office.

Marina has been passionate about agriculture since she was a child, which motivated her studies in agronomy and animal sciences.  Therefore, she graduated as an Agronomical Engineer at the University of Sao Paulo in Brazil and completed her master’s degree in the Animal Science department at The Ohio State University.  During her undergrad, Marina worked in different animal science research labs, and her studies were emphasized in forage crops and pastures.  During her master’s degree, her studies emphasized sustainable agroecosystems and her master’s project focused on understanding the effects of flooding on forage crops.  During her education, Marina developed a keen interest in extension and outreaching knowledge to the community, leading her to be an ANR Educator in Greene County.
