Now I feel MUCH better!

Hi Alan. I graduated from one of the best agronomy colleges in South America (ESALQ). I have earned my master's degree from the same institution and attended Texas A&M University as a doctoral candidate. I was an agronomy professor in Brazil for 18 years and I now work as a full-time translator mainly in this field. Most of my clients are my former teachers and colleagues, not to mention my own former students, so I should pretty much know what I am talking about here.

Cheers,

Henrique

Is any of the answerers below a biologist or a possessor of specialised knowledge in the field, or are we all just guessing here? Will the real agriculturalist please step forward? :)
