We were hosted by Chargé d’Affaires Hugo Guevara and USAID Mission Director Michael Nehrbass whose teams helped us connect with US and Azeri companies. Thanks to Elshan Baloghlanov, who operates Greenway Farms in Maryland, Dylan was invited to meet with the Rector of Baku State University (BSU) and give a lecture on hydroponic and aquaponic food production. Danbury Hydroponics will be collaborating with Elshan as well as Josh Dusci of the Aquaponics Association to provide courses on controlled environment agriculture to students and professors of BSU. We donated the demonstration hydroponic system that we brought to the Expo to the BSU students for hands-on learning during the virtual courses.
