Research & Interests
My research interests range across crop and forage science and animal feed science, with a background in field crop experimentation, cereal agronomy and modelling, and the evaluation of ruminant feed nutritive value, in particular silage crop preservation.Current Research Supervision and Projects
- Clodagh King (Co-Supervisor) - Agcumulate - A study on the accumulation of microplastics in soils and terrestrial ecosystems.
- Ryan Callan - Multispec - Ensiling Multispecies Swards
- Remember Roger Adjei - CrOptions - Modelling wholecrop cereal biomass, yield and value for Ireland
- Farjana Akter - Predicting the impact of climate change on Irish tillage farms and developing adaptation strategies
- Ella Mulkerrins (Co-Supervisor)- Quantifying the incidence and implications of increasing disease pressure on perennial ryegrass farming in Ireland
