Dr. Landis is Co-founder and President of LANDIS INTERNATIONAL, INC.
He has over 30 years of experience in the agricultural research and
development area and has been actively working with and negotiating with the
USDA/EPA since 1969, before the present-day EPA was formed.
Dr. Landis’s time is divided between regulatory consultation activities
and overseeing the project management activities of LANDIS INTERNATIONAL.
With the founding of LANDIS in 1982, Dr. Landis introduced the concept
of contract project management into the agricultural chemical realm.
Prior to this, he had twelve years’ experience developing his project
management skills in the agricultural chemical industry.
He had developed contract ag chem project management from its beginnings
in 1982 to today’s computer-assisted project and program management.
Dr. Landis’ and LANDIS INTERNATIONAL’S approach to working with the
U.S. EPA is unique in the industry in that we take a cooperative,
non-confrontational, problem-resolution approach. His reputation as an individual who can obtain positive
regulatory results is largely owing to this, as well as his ability to see the
implications of alternative regulatory tactics and strategies.
Dr. Landis earned his M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Plant Pathology from
Michigan State University, and received his B.S. in Botany from Miami University
in Oxford, Ohio.
