Thumbnail of AgriThority® Expert Spotlight: Marcos Sarto, Ph.D.Growing up in a small town in southern Brazil, I frequently accompanied my father, an agronomist and farmer, to the coffee, soybean, corn and wheat fields. He taught me the importance of relationships, friendship, hard work and lifelong learning – lessons that I carry with me to this day and strive to bring to my daily routine.

Throughout my career, I have had the privilege of working closely with farmers and companies to conduct research trials on experimental areas. Additionally, I have been involved in both on-farm research trials and greenhouse studies. It has been a fulfilling experience to collaborate with individuals who share a passion for advancing agricultural knowledge and improving sustainability practices.

I specialize in designing trials and ensuring thorough execution for our clients. My top priority is achieving the best possible outcomes to provide reliable conclusions and recommendations.

Agriculture is constantly changing as we explore new ways to grow crops. Numerous technological advancements have been made in recent years, and new products are discovered and developed every year. I am thrilled by the innovative possibilities in agriculture and am eager to assist our clients in implementing these new products and technologies into farm operations worldwide.
