Dr Manpreet Kour is Doctorate on simulation modeling in Agronomy, presently working as Junior Scientist (Senior scale) AICRP on Weed Management, Division of Agronomy, SKUAST Jammu, with a teaching, research, and extension experience of about 17 years. She has teaching experience of more than 150 credit hours and handled seven research projects. Her publications include 33 research papers, 50 abstracts, and 68 extension publications along with eight manuals, eight popular articles, 37 chapters in book/compendium, two research bulletins, and presented more than 22 papers in various seminars and symposia. Apart from these 10 recommendations and technologies have been developed. Her contribution has been recognized by 16 awards/appreciations.Dr Vikas Sharma is Professor and Head, Division of Soil Science and Agricultural Chemistry at the Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology of Jammu, India. He obtained his doctorate from the Punjab Agricultural University, Ludhiana, India and did postdoc under the Raman Fellowship from West Virginia University, USA. He has been a Visiting Professor at the Auburn University, USA. He is the founder Head of Centre for Organic and Natural Farming and has been instrumental in establishing the center from scratch. His research interests include digital soil mapping, pedometrics, soil carbon, soil conservation, and land degradation. Most of his work pertains to soils in Indian Himalayas. He has worked on soil erosion risk mitigation, carbon pools, and carbon losses from the Himalayan soils and nutrient dynamics in the erosion-prone foothill of Himalayas. He has utilized his expertise in remote-sensing and GIS in assessing and mapping soil resources in the region. He is presently focusing on utilizing machine learning models in soil mapping. He is also involved in teaching and advising students' research. He has executed multiple projects and presently is the PI of the prestigious NAHEP project at SKUAST Jammu. He has over 90 research articles and 30 book chapters to his credit. His latest authored book is on Soils in the Hindukush Himalayas has been published by Springer.Dr Harsimran Singh Bindra is Doctorate in nanoscience, presently working as Assistant Professor (Contractual) Division of Biotechnology, SKUAST Jammu and have teaching, research and extension experience of about 8 years. His publications include 12 research papers, eight popular articles, four chapters in book/compendium, and presented more than four papers in various seminars and symposia. Apart from these he owns one patent.
