Animal Science

In animal science, our researchers have focused on topics such as livestock, fertility, grazing impacts and reproductive biotechnology. Currently, members of this team are evaluating the effects of diet changes on the nutrient constituents of swine excreta and its treatment for odor control and environmental protection. Results of the swine study will be important in improving the treatment of swine waste as it relates to swine health and growth, as well as environmental protection. Our animal science team is also looking at ways to address the demand for protein based food through investigation of aquaculture applications in Missouri.
