ABOUT HRISHIKESH DHAMDHERE
Currently a researcher at CREA, working on grapevine health and resilience with a focus on Glera (Prosecco) and other Vitis vinifera cultivars. I conduct field sampling, phenological monitoring, and pathogen detection using RT-PCR, qPCR, ELISA, and DAS-ELISA, integrating lab and field data to evaluate disease incidence and treatment effectiveness. I contribute to multidisciplinary projects aimed at vineyard sustainability, long-term crop stability, and innovative disease management strategies.Agronomist with expertise in Plant Pathology, Molecular Biology, and Sustainable Farming Systems, holding an MSc in International Horticultural Science from the University of Bologna and Wageningen University (Erasmus+). My background spans crop protection, nutrient management, and farm advisory, complemented by applied research on phytoplasmas and major crop pathogens, including grapevine and sugar beet. I am proficient in advanced molecular techniques and innovative approaches like Plasma Activated Water (PAW) for sustainable agriculture.Beyond research, I bring experience in market analysis, product positioning, digital strategies, and precision agriculture enabled by AI, IoT, and geospatial technologies. I am motivated by opportunities where science, innovation, and practical solutions converge to enhance sustainable agriculture and resilient food systems.\"As you sow, so shall you reap.\"
