Grace Tiwari

I'm a Ph.D. student in Dr. Heather Grab's Applied Systems Ecology research group. I'm dedicated to empowering farmers with data-driven decision-making tools, ultimately enhancing the productivity and sustainability of agroecosystems. My doctoral research involves: 1) developing automated sensor systems for real-time monitoring of Fall Armyworm in sweet corn; 2) assessing the role of Corn Earworm natural enemies in biological control at field and landscape levels; and 3) investigating how smallholder farmers perceive and adopt climate-resilient agricultural technologies
