Mr. Md Suhag | Agroforestry | Best Researcher Award

Mr. Md Suhag | Gazipur Agricultural University | Bangladesh

Md. Suhag is an emerging researcher in Agroforestry and Environmental Science whose work focuses on sustainable crop production, soil fertility enhancement, and integrated land-use systems. He has published seven scientific papers in reputed international journals, contributing to advancing knowledge on alley cropping, multistoried agroforestry, and allelopathic interactions among tree species such as Leucaena leucocephala, Gliricidia sepium, Eucalyptus, and Aonla. His research outputs collectively demonstrate strong methodological rigor, blending field experimentation with soil biochemical analysis to optimize productivity and sustainability. Suhag’s publications have earned growing academic recognition with two indexed documents, one citation, and an h-index of 1, reflecting the early but impactful trajectory of his scholarly engagement. He has also led three funded research projects as Principal Investigator and contributed as Co-Principal Investigator in another, addressing critical environmental and agricultural challenges in Bangladesh, including soil degradation, nutrient cycling, and crop yield optimization. His research initiatives exhibit strong interdisciplinary collaboration and practical relevance for agroecological innovation. Suhag’s academic excellence, demonstrated through top-ranking performance in his MS and BS (Ag) degrees, complements his active involvement in professional and institutional development, positioning him as a promising scholar committed to advancing sustainable agricultural systems and environmental stewardship.

Dr. Ibrahim Ahmad | Agricultural Science | Best Researcher Award

Ibrahim Ahmad | Tasmanian Institute of Agriculture | Australia 

Ibrahim Ahmad is a veterinary scientist and Ph.D. researcher in Agriculture (Animal Science) at the University of Tasmania, specialising in sustainable livestock production and enteric methane mitigation. With a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, a Master’s in Veterinary Medicine by research, and ongoing doctoral work focused on anti-methanogenic feed additives using Asparagopsis seaweed, he brings over a decade of progressive experience in veterinary practice, meat inspection, animal welfare, biosecurity, zoonotic disease control, ruminant nutrition and livestock systems research. His published body of work spans tuberculosis in livestock, zoonotic diseases, methane reduction strategies, and ruminant microbiome responses, with 14 peer-reviewed documents, 73 citations, and an h-index of 6, reflecting both productivity and research influence across animal health and agricultural science. He has presented at international conferences, contributed as a reviewer to multiple journals, and maintains active research networks across Australia, Nigeria, Malaysia, and beyond. His current doctoral research, backed by major scholarships such as the Tasmania Graduate Research Scholarship and Tim Healey Memorial Scholarship, aims to improve climate-smart livestock systems with scalable on-farm solutions for methane reduction without compromising productivity or welfare. His academic memberships and international collaborations further consolidate his growing impact on veterinary research and sustainable agriculture.
