Hi! I’m Fernando Garcia, aka Ferchucky or Dr. Banana 🍌 a plant scientist, agronomist, and a bit of an artist. I create #SciComm, fun videos, and #Bananatoons, sharing my 20+ years working with crops like coffee and bananas.

I’m the lead of the Yelloway breeding program at KeyGene, a consultant expert on Fusarium TR4, and I love giving a behind-the-scenes look at plant science through vlogs.

I also explore unusual bonsai from #AvocadoBonsai to mangoes, coffee, and coconuts. Currently, we’re relaunching our podcast, “Unpeeled with Dr Banana”. Subscribe to join the journey and grow amazing plants with me! 🌱
