Leo Richarte-Delgado, Ph.D.

Biography

Originally from Aguascalientes, Mexico, I grew up on my family farm. I received a Bachelors degree in Agronomy Engineering at the Universidad Autonoma de Aguascalientes in 2007. After that, I worked for a couple of years for the state government, until I started my Masters program at TTU in the fall of 2009. My research focuses on measuring quality forage characteristics of purple threeawn through different phenological stages after applied burning and clipping treatments.
