Areas of interest

Current research includes a continuing commitment to seeking farm systems solutions to increase the productivity of NZ dairy farms. 

My quest to increase the productivity of dairy farms is partially fulfilled by the 25t project which seeks to increase the forage produced on dairy farms to 25tDM/ha and through determining the cause of differences in pasture accumulation between individual paddocks.

Other work involves the determination of the feasibility of extended lactations for pastoral systems in NZ and research for the 'Pastures from Space' research that aims to deliver real time pasture cover data to NZ dairy farmers; and the extension of feed and farm systems research to the dairy industry.
