I am the director of agroinformacion.com. I earned my degree in Information Sciences from the University of the Basque Country in 1983. After holding several positions in Bilbao, I joined Jerez Información in 1990, where I served as director for 15 years, and later spent two years as director of Cádiz Información. In late 2016, I took over agroinformacion.com, a website that has since become the leading digital reference for the agricultural sector nationwide, surpassing 20 million visits in 2023 and reaching 5.8 million unique users.
