After gaining valuable experience in the field of agronomic engineering, specializing in hydraulics and rural development at the National Institut Agronomique of Tunisia, Manel Khlif pursued a research master's degree in geomatics applied to agriculture and the environment at the same institution, where she specialized in remote sensing and programming. She completed a PhD specializing in remote sensing, with a focus on the impact of drought events on cereal yields and water productivity. Currently, she is a postdoctoral researcher at the GREEN TEAM laboratory (INAT) and the Tunisian Ministry of Agriculture, where she will be developing an early cereal classification and yield prediction model for Tunisia's six most productive governorates. She aims to contribute her expertise to agricultural research and sustainable water management initiatives.
