Linda is our Industry Liaison & Technical Specialist and has been with KVH since 2011. She has worked with growers and technical teams from all growing regions, helping build knowledge around best practice management of Psa.

She is a member of the Psa steering group and also the Zespri crop protection steering group, with input into research projects and facilitation and implementation of results.

More recently, her role has had increased focus on biosecurity and now includes co-ordination of KiwiNet representatives from across the post-harvest sector. Meeting and sharing knowledge with a wide range of great people across the industry remains the best part of her job.

Linda has been involved in the kiwifruit industry for 30 years, in both growing and post-harvest roles, and prior to joining KVH was technical manager at Direct Management Services (DMS).
