PhD Research Scholar (Fruit Science) | Agriculture & Horticulture Research |

Profile Summary

I am a PhD r in Fruit Science at SKUAST-Jammu with strong expertise in horticultural research, experimental design scientific writing. My doctoral research focuses on sustainable fruit production, organic nutrient management, and quality enhancement in guava, while my master’s research was on strawberry growth, yield, and quality. I have authored and co-authored multiple peer-reviewed research and review articles in NAAS-rated journals, covering areas such as biostimulants, biochar, plant growth regulators, micronutrients, soil biochemical properties, salinity stress mitigation, and precision agriculture. I also have experience in AI applications in agriculture, supported by recent publications on artificial intelligence in agricultural systems. My skills include literature review, manuscript writing and editing, statistical data analysis (SPSS/Excel), interpretation of experimental results, and preparation of technical reports. I have served as a reviewer for reputed scientific journals and have practical experience as a Project Assistant/Young Professional under the Holistic Agriculture Development Programme (HADP). I am keen to collaborate on remote research projects involving agriculture, horticulture, sustainability, agri-biotechnology, data analysis, and AI-enabled research solutions.
