About me

Graduated in Agricultural and Environmental Sciences from the University of Tuscia, economic-territorial profile. Before embarking on the research path, I worked at an agricultural service company evaluating the efficacy of phytosanitary products in central Italy. Later, I carried out a research fellowship at ISPRA to monitor the agricultural practice of manure spreading with the support of EO data and products and in situ data.

My research

The objective of the research is to introduce a method for agricultural practices monitoring in terms of pollutant emissions, with the support of EO products, aimed at supporting decision-making related to climate change adaptation actions and mitigation measures financed under the EU Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). This method also aims to support decisions on air quality monitoring plans by regional and local authorities.
