About this position
This post-doc at Wageningen University & Research is part of the ReGeNL programme and sits at the intersection of regenerative agriculture, soil monitoring, and farm-level transition support in the Netherlands.
The role focuses on leading the development and implementation of monitoring plans for 1,000 farms, helping coordinate ongoing activities that support the transition towards regenerative outcomes. The post-doc bridges Action Line 2, which supports farmers in the move towards regenerative farming, and Action Line 3, which concentrates on the scientific measurement and monitoring of regenerative agriculture. Working within the Soil Biology group, the successful candidate will help ensure continuity and coordination across these linked activities and contribute to the scientific coordination of monitoring across the ReGeNL farm network.
The project is strongly applied and collaborative. The post-doc will work alongside ReGeNL colleagues involved in the different action lines and will interact with farmers, advisors, and industry partners to support implementation and delivery. The Soil Biology group provides the research home for the position, with a broad interest in soil life across scales from microbe to globe and a mission focused on understanding how life in soil can improve soil quality and functioning in agroecosystems.
The advertised work is therefore not only about data collection, but about building a monitoring approach that supports a large-scale, science-based shift in Dutch agriculture. The environment is international and interdisciplinary, with an emphasis on combining soil knowledge, agricultural practice, and stakeholder engagement in a policy-relevant setting.
Funding details
