About the position
The Climate Action research area is seeking a computational agronomist with experience in various modeling techniques to enhance decision-making in the agricultural sector. Specifically, expertise in agroclimatic modeling. The selected candidate will be responsible for designing and implementing Decision Support Tools (DST) aimed at improving agronomic management and promoting climate adaptation in small-scale productive systems in Latin America, initially focusing on Honduras. These DSTs will provide agronomic advice, to implement AgWise, a site- and climate-specific agronomic recommendation engine. This effort will build capacity within other teams of the Alliance Bioversity-CIAT in Latin America, particularly in Multifunctional Landscapes, as these functions will contribute to the Honduras Soils Project, which revolves around the continuous development, maintenance, and scaling of decision support systems supporting the generation and delivery of recommendations to improve fertilizer use.
For this position, a deep understanding of crop modeling is necessary, including to some extent machine learning and artificial intelligence models, as well as process-based crop models, encompassing their development, calibration, and specialization for agronomic applications. Additionally, knowledge of agronomy, fertilization, and crop nutrition, as well as plant physiology and the soil-plant-atmosphere system interaction, is required, as the candidate will need to adapt and interpret crop modeling outputs to inform decisions that optimize yields through fertilization strategies.
The position will be based in the operations center of the Americas, located in the Campus of Palmira, Colombia.
