Water, Environmental and Agricultural Resources Economics (WEARE)

Predoctoral research

Biography

I got my degree in Business Administration (2021) and a Master in Business Administration (MBA) (2022) both at the University of Córdoba. Also, I obtained a Master in Applied Statistics for Data Science with R Software (2023) at the University of Nebrija (Madrid). Since 2022, I have been working at University in Agricultural Economics, Finance and Accounting department with a predoctoral contract including teaching charges.

I am currently a PhD Student in Social and Legal Sciences at the University of Córdoba. My thesis is focused on the green transition of agriculture regarding synergies and conflicts between socioeconomic and environmental farm performance.

Research Interests

My research is mainly devoted to support agricultural policy-making through studies focused on:

• Farm economic and environmental performance
• Comparative analysis of agricultural systems
• Farm typologies based on latent class models

I am currently participating in projects TRANSECOag and FARMPERFORM (see Projects section for further information).
