Daniel Tompkins - Agricultural Scientist a Founder
Dan Tompkins knew he loved science, and so he grew up thinking about going into medicine. What he didn't know then was what type of medicine he would be doing. Years of working at a local garden a nursery shop inevitably led him down his career path of agricultural science. He graduated from Delaware Valley College with his BS in environmental design and ornamental horticulture and then went on to the University of Florida for his Doctorate in Plant Medicine. Currently, Dan has pivoted a way from his passion of agricultural science to start a new company called GrowMars focusing on agricultural growth and development in space. Listen to Dan talk about the numerous issues and topic areas that plague the agricultural industry and the myriad of concerns that the common person will never even hear about, let alone understand. He's a wealth of knowledge about everything related to plants and agriculture and well on his way to helping solve some of the world's biggest questions on food production and plant growth.
