Dow AgroSciences has hired Jorge Villasenor as the Telone specialist for the Columbia Basin area of Washington. He replaces Ryan Roslak, who retired after 33 years with Dow AgroSciences.
Villasenor will work in various crops, but will focus on potatoes, onions and tree fruit. He will work with all applicators of Telone to ensure that stewardship programs and proper applications are maintained. He will also provide expertise on equipment issues related to fumigation with Telone and coordinate field trials with university and contract researchers.
Previously, Villasenor was employed as a Telone specialist in Idaho, where he worked with growers, retailers and custom applicators. He earned a degree in tree fruit management from Washington State University in 2016.
