96:(AAFC), at the Quebec Research and development centre, whose research focuses on soil fertility and plant nutrition. She has developed technologies, methods, and knowledge for better management of mineral fertilizers that increase their efficiency while reducing environmental impact. More specifically, Ziadi developed and validated models to diagnose nitrogen and phosphorus status for different crops, developed new technologies to ensure effective management of industrial wastes (paper mill biosolids) and biochar, and developed methods for soil analysis. Ziadi conducts her research on national and international scales in multidisciplinary teams that include government, university, and industry partners. Her research increases agricultural productivity and enhances environmental performance earning her recognition as an influential woman in agriculture.

From 2007 to 2016, she led 3 research projects involving 17 researchers from 5 Canadian provinces and four other countries, with a research budget of over $ 2 million. Her rigorous and meticulous management of financial resources has allowed her to use public funds as efficiently as possible. Ziadi has published more than 170 papers, five reviews, and 13 book chapters.

Ziadi is leading a long-term study of legacy phosphorus across Canada. Without adequate phosphorus, plant growth and crop yield are reduced. Fertilizer phosphorus added beyond the crop's yearly needs can remain tightly bound to the soil and is known as “residual phosphorus” or “legacy phosphorus”.

Ziadi began her career as a soil scientist in 1998 with AAFC at the Quebec
Research and Development Centre (QRDC). Since 2003, she has led the Soil Fertility research lab at the QRDC. Ziadi's research program has focused on soil fertility, plant nutrition, and more specifically research to better
