Sourse:   Date:2019-01-17

Wu Wei (PhD, Huazhong Agricultural University) is associate Professor at the college of agronomy, Northwest A&F University. After completion of my PhD in 2012, I joined the Ottawa Development and Research Centre, Agriculture Agri-Food Canada from 2014-2017 as a post-doc. My research interests mainly include crop physiology, agronomic practices, nutrient management, sustainable crop production, crop lodging, cropping system, abiotic stress, and soil health and sustainability.
