Awards

Marsh Horticultural Research Award

This Award is run in association with the Royal Horticultural Society and recognises an individual for undertaking important research in the field of horticulture.


The 2010 winner is Professor Paul Hadley

Professor Paul Hadley has been a leading light in horticultural research and a driving force in ensuring its continuation.

During his 33 years at the University of Reading much of his work has focused on research relating to fruit and vegetable production and his studies have led to the development of mathematical models that have helped growers predict the responses of crops to their environment.

Paul has also been recognised by his contemporaries for his enthusiasm, energy and efforts in horticultural education as well as research. He has managed to maintain the University of Reading as a centre for horticultural education and research, while many other horticultural degrees at other universities have closed, and is now Director of Centre for Horticulture and Landscape within the School of Biological Sciences.
