APPLICATION FOR POST-GRADUATE RESEARCH GRANT / SCHOLARSHIP
I am writing to look for grant or scholarship to pursue graduate studies
( Ph. D). I am a holder of Post-Graduate Diploma in Forestry from the
University of Melbourne, Australia. I have submitted a thesis on Intercropping
Lupinus arboreus (prennial lupin) in forest plantation management for a
MSc. Degree in Forestry, attainable by May 1994.
My background , research experience and interests cover a broad spectrum
of topics but I am particularly interested in vegetation, nutrient and site
management to achieve sustainable production. Having a background in
agriculture, agroforestry and forestry in addition to international research
experience with CSIRO Division of Forestry (Australia), provides excellent
qualifications for a graduate research.
I worked with the Agroforestry Unit of the FAO/ Ministry of Agriculture
Project in Ghana as Regional Agroforestry Officer from 1989 - 1992.
Technical and research reports produced during this period include:
i) Diagnosis and Design Project Report on Guinea Savanna agro-ecological zone
ii) Effects of Leucaena leucocephala prunings on the yield of Dioscorea rotunda
(white yam) .
iii) Evaluation of Albizia lebbeck, Cassia seamea, and Leucaena leucocephala
for fuelwood production.
