Advisor:
Associate Professor Dr. Luiz F. Ferraretto
Research Area:
I am a postdoctoral researcher interested in the interactions between feed hygiene, dairy cow nutrition, and metabolic efficiency. My research focuses on diet formulation, forage quality, and carbohydrate utilization, with a particular emphasis on optimizing energy predictions and silage quality. My broader research goals center on enhancing herd productivity by optimizing calving intervals and maximizing milk yields through advanced nutritional modeling. Additionally, I leverage meta-analyses to contribute novel, data-driven insights to the field of dairy cattle nutrition.
