Fred T. Davies, Jr., is a Regents Professor emeritus of Horticultural Sciences and Senior Borlaug Fellow in Horticulture at Texas A&M University. Early in his career, he got hooked on the biology of cutting propagation, presenting propagation research as a graduate student at his first International Plant Propagators' Society (IPPS) meeting in 1975. He is a Past President of the IPPS-SR and the American Society for Horticultural Science (ASHS) (2011). He is IPPS-SR Editor, an IPPS Fellow, ASHS Fellow, Meadows Awardee, and received the IPPS International Award of Honor (2015). Davies has worked internationally at research institutes and taught at universities as a Guggenheim Fellow (1999), and Senior Fulbright Fellow to Mexico (1993), Peru (2000), and Indonesia (2012). In 2014, he was a Jefferson Science Fellow/Senior Science Advisor at USAID-U.S. Agency for International Development-helping with the Feed-the-Future program. He continues to work internationally in food security and in promoting entrepreneurial and career opportunities in horticulture.
