Dr. Krishna Nemali traveled to El Salvador to support the ongoing Purdue IPIA project on enhancing sustainable and climate-smart agriculture in the region. He conducted an assessment of hydroponic crop production in the region. During his visit, Dr. Nemali met several stakeholders including researchers at the National Center for Agricultural and Forestry Technology (CENTA), The Agricultural Commercial Intelligence Directorate (DICA), the Director of Plant Health at the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, Walmart, hydroponic growers, and greenhouse suppliers. The project will train several researchers and growers from both the valley and mountain regions of El Salvador in hydroponic crop production during the spring and summer months.
