A few weeks into his role as AF Crop Protection Procurement Manager, and with nearly 20 years experience in crop production and protection, Alfie Jackson brings a wealth of hands-on experience and a sound understanding of the crop protection industry to your AF team.
"I started my career in ornamental plant growing before moving into food production and agronomy.
"I have a degree in Commercial Horticulture and have been a grower in both the UK and USA. I’ve also worked in technical roles focused on sustainable use of crop protection products.
"Most recently I competed the commissioning of and managed crop protection at The Green House Growers, Norwich and Ely, before joining Fischer Farms as Head of Agronomy for the largest vertical farm in the world.
"I am a BASIS (Hort) and FACTS qualified advisor and have had the pleasure of being on the other end of the course as an examiner too.
"I’m really happy to have joined the AF team as Crop Protection Procurement Manager and look forward to making a positive and meaningful contribution to our Members’ business success. If you’ve got a question or want a chat about the crop protection products you need, I'd love to hear from you."
