Professor Keith Woodford

Biography

Keith Woodford is an independent agribusiness consultant, working both in New Zealand and overseas, with honorary positions as Professor of Agri-Food Systems at Lincoln University, and Senior Research Fellow with the Contemporary China Research Centre at Victoria University. He is currently part of a grassland sustainability research project on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, funded jointly by the Chinese and New Zealand Governments, and his China interests go back to 1973 when he first visited China. Despite visiting China many times over the intervening period, he regards himself as very much a learner in relation to that complex and fascinating country.
