Biography – Dr. Erick Santos
https://apps.ualberta.ca/directory/person/dasilvas
Dr. Erick Santos started as an Assistant Professor in Forage Science at the University of Alberta in 2023.
He acquired a B.Sc. in animal sciences at the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco (2014), and a M.Sc.
(2017) and Ph.D. (2021) in Agronomy at the University of Florida, with focus on forage and grazing
management. Dr. Santos was then a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Alberta for one and half

including the Gerald O. Mott Meritorious Graduate Student Award in Crop Science, Fred Hull Award of
Excellence, and the International Student Outstanding Achievement. Dr. Santos’ research topics include
grass-legumes mixtures, crop-livestock systems, cover crops, nutrient cycling, strategies to extend the
grazing season, and assessment of ecosystem services provided by grasslands. Dr. Santos serves as an
associate editor for the Grass and Forage Science and Crop Science journals, and is the chair-elect for
the Forages and Grazinglands section of the Crop Science Society of America. To date, Erick has
published or co-authored, 1 book chapter, 53 research papers, 84 abstracts, and 42 extension reports or
prints in popular press.
