From his arrival at Macdonald in 1957, Eugene Donefer maintained a strong interest in international research, specifically in the Caribbean. He was one of four founding professors who developed courses in International Agriculture - an initiative that today sees a major, a minor, and several courses dedicated to the advancement of agricultural development overseas. Prof. Donefer's career at McGill culminated with his appointment in 1985 as Director of McGill International - a position he held until his retirement in 1992.
Prof. Donefer maintains an interest in Caribbean-based agriculture, with a specific interest in the the sugarcane industry and its promotion.
