Professor Holger Meinke is Director and Head of School of the Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture (TIA) at UTAS. He previously held the Chair of Crop and Weed Ecology at Wageningen University, The Netherlands (2007–2011); prior to that he was a cropping systems scientist with the Queensland Government and APSRU (1988–2007) where he co-developed the agricultural systems simulation platform APSIM. He pioneered operational climate risk management for agriculture in Australia and internationally. He is a member of two editorial boards and a member of the CCAFS Steering Committee, a research program of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR). He published over 80 papers in disciplinary and trans-disciplinary journals and currently supervises 5 PhD candidates. He is passionate about research that matters.
