Biography:
Jean Fabrice Adanve holds a PhD in Sustainable Agriculture and Climate Change and believes Africa must develop sustainable approaches in climate adaptation. Based on extensive fieldwork across Côte d'Ivoire, he witnessed traditional pest management failing farming communities under rapid climate shifts. Passionate about bridging local realities with advanced science, his Master's work optimized fertilizer timing for rice blast, and his doctoral research modeled Rice Brown Spot drivers under SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5 scenarios. He aspires to integrate Machine Learning and AI for real-time disease prediction and to build Africa-led, farmer-centered research networks. His goal: transform science into scalable tools that empower African farmers to farm profitably and resiliently.
