Top SchoolSam Wilson is an agricultural scientist and lecturer with a decade of hands-on experience managing field trials, analysing agronomic data, and translating research into practical pasture and crop solutions. Raised on a sheep and beef farm, he combines practical farm-born insight with rigorous academic training—first-class honours in Agricultural Science from Lincoln University and a PhD in pasture science from Massey University. His background spans crop breeding, soil and water research, and GLP-compliant agrichemical trials, giving him a rare blend of experimental management and regulatory study design. Sam is noted for turning daily trial management into publishable science and for collaborating closely with senior scientists to generate new research directions. Now lecturing at Massey, he continues to bridge applied research and teaching while maintaining an active research profile visible on ResearchGate.
