About Renske

Renske Hijbeek is an associate professor in the Plant Production Systems group at Wageningen University & Research. She earned her PhD from Wageningen University in 2017 with a thesis titled 'On the role of soil organic matter for crop production in European arable farming'. Her research centers on nutrient management in arable farming systems across temperate regions and the tropics. She explores strategies to enhance soil fertility, such as recycling organic waste streams and cultivating legumes, to maximize environmental benefits including reduced greenhouse gas emissions and minimized agricultural land use. Hijbeek's expertise includes agricultural systems, crop production, agroecosystems, nitrogen response, soil fertility management, resource efficiency, soil organic matter, and human ecology. She teaches three MSc courses: 'Analysing Sustainability of Farming Systems', 'Advanced Agronomy', and 'The Carbon Dilemma - A Soil Perspective'.
