Attention Florida Farmers:

Seeking Collaboration for

Key Farming Insights 

Greetings!

My name is Wilfrid Florestant, and I'm currently deep-diving into a pivotal research study as part of my Doctorate of Business Administration degree from North Central University. I'm reaching out with an invitation for Florida farmers to play a crucial role in shaping this research about the farming industry. 

Research Objective:

To understand how bioengineering technology may be the solution to many problems that climate change has triggered and that threaten the survivability of all living species on the planet. To reiterate, excessive heat, floods, and major weather events are consequences of climate change that humans must learn to solve, keeping the earth livable for future generations. These events have affected the ability of traditional farming to meet the demand for food production besides the natural microorganisms in soil which have proven detrimental to farming.

This study is significant because it will determine if perceptions of bioengineering have been impactful and safe in agriculture as a solution to many of those problems from climate change. To get a comprehensive view, I'm looking to connect with 30 seasoned farming professionals who've been in the farming realm for at least three years. 

 

How You Can Help:

I am conducting brief virtual interviews, lasting 15 minutes. These interviews will revolve around a concise set of 8 questions designed to uncover pivotal insights. 

 

In Return:

I will ensure you receive a detailed report of my findings. Furthermore, recognizing the potential value this holds for the Florida Farmers community, I'm offering explicit permission for you to publish and disseminate these insights. Collaborating with you would undoubtedly enrich my research, offering a depth that would be hard to achieve otherwise. I genuinely hope you would consider this request. If the prospect sounds intriguing, please click the link below to set up a call at a time that works best for you. Thank you immensely for considering this partnership. I'm hopeful for the insights we can uncover together! 

Interview Protocol

Eight interview questions over zoom on perceptions related to sustainability and quality of genetically modified foods. Participant responses will be recorded. Each participant will get 15 minutes to formulate their answers.

Participants will have an opportunity to confirm their answers before the close of the interview. Each interviewee will be coded as respondent and assigned a number, such as “Respondent 1”, according to the position held in the interviewing process. A partial transcription of each interview will be sent respectively to each participant for possible revisions.

Interviewing Process

1. Share research background information with participants.

2. Ask participants to briefly speak about their work that they do within the farming industry.

3. Ask the participants a series of eight questions on their perceptions related to sustainability and quality of genetically modified foods.

Interview Questions:

In what ways, and to what extent do agricultural professionals perceive that invention of GMOS make more food varieties available in Florida?
