We aim to contribute to efficient and sustainable livestock production systems and food security.

How?

We investigate efficient breeding approaches, livestock husbandry techniques, novel (information) technology, climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies in livestock systems, integrating socio-economic and biophysical determinants. We conduct basic and applied, inter- and transdisciplinary research using modelling and conventional approaches.

Where?

We conduct research in intensive and extensive (incl. organic) systems in temperate, tropical and sub-tropical environments.
