Independent plant doctor, organic and regenerative farming advisor
I don’t sell crop protection products and I don’t take commissions. My only interest is that your farm works — so I stay with you through the season, from the field walk to the prescription.

Companies and institutions I have worked with
How I help
Organic, regenerative – or both together
Regenerative farming
Cover crops, reduced tillage, living soil, better water retention.
Details →
Organic farming
Conversion, crop protection with approved products and beneficial organisms, nutrient supply without synthetic fertiliser.

Combined, tailored to your farm
Both togetherYou don't have to pick just one path. From the good practices of both systems, we put together what works on your soil, in your crops and with your machinery.

In any crop
Arable · orchards · medicinal herbs · vegetables – the method adapts to your farm, not the other way round.

Bird-friendly farming
My best crop protection isn’t kept in a warehouse.
Nest boxes, perches, flower strips and hedgerows: where birds and predatory insects have room too, there is less need to intervene. The photo shows a wryneck breeding in a nest box we put up.
About the bird-friendly plantation →
My specialty
Organic rosehip cultivation.
A minor crop with little Hungarian technical literature and hardly any approved plant protection products. I have worked in it for years: cultivation technology, crop protection and harvest, with an organic approach.

Soil assessment in the field
A spade often tells you more than a lab report.
Soil profile, earthworm channels, rooting depth, compacted layers: what works above the field is decided below it. My advice starts with digging in and taking a look.
About field assessments →Key focus area
Regenerative arable farming.
Cover crops, minimal disturbance, living roots in the soil for as much of the year as possible. I guide the transition on a large arable farm: from soil testing through crop rotation to crop protection – while keeping the farm running.
About regenerative farming →From the field
I don’t advise from an office.
Every photo is from my own field visits: minor crops, arable land, soil profiles and the wildlife of field margins.
Why me?
I have nothing to sell you. I only give advice.
I spent ten years in production — as a plant doctor, then as deputy production manager — always where something was new: regenerative conversion on arable land, minor crops with no Hungarian literature and hardly any approved products.
More about me and my career →I don’t sell pesticides
The goal is not to spray as much as possible. If no intervention is needed, I’ll tell you.
No commission
I live solely from my consulting fee — nobody pays me to recommend their product.
Data, not gut feeling
Where there is no ready answer, we set up on-farm strip trials in your own field.
Scientific background
Doctoral training at the Doctoral School of Horticultural Sciences; publications and projects on rosehip, oregano and garlic.

What people say about me
People who have worked with me
As newcomers we approached him for advice on growing medicinal herbs, and the nearly two-hour consultation exceeded all our expectations. We especially appreciated the objective, experience-based approach and the honest professional guidance.
