Michael Nielsen has been appointed Regional Director for Jebsen & Jessen Technology’s Turf & Irrigation Division.

Singapore: Michael Nielsen, formerly Managing Director for Jebsen & Jessen (J&J) Technology in Indonesia, has assumed the position of Regional Director for Jebsen & Jessen Technology’s Turf & Irrigation Division.

Nielsen took over as Regional Director for Jebsen & Jessen Technology’s Turf & Irrigation Division on December 1.
