RuminOmics Technical Visit on Methane and
Feed Efficiency in Dairy Cows - Wednesday June 25, 2014 in Nottingham, UK,
9:00 – 13:00.
The RuminOmics Technical Visit will organise discussion between industry representatives and researchers on state-of-the-art developments regarding feed efficiency and methane emissions in dairy cows. We aim to acquaint industry representatives with the hands-on experimental work of the RuminOmics research project, and to have your input on the tools under development and their applicability for industrial use. The Technical Visit is organised alongside the Nottingham Feed Conference, which is held on June 24 & 25 2014 and is aimed at representatives of feed and breeding industry, researchers and other people interested in this field. About RuminOmics Connecting the animal genome to the microbiome, feed efficiency and methane emission: that is the aim of the RuminOmics research project. Eleven partners from across Europe work together on the RuminOmics project, lead by Professor John Wallace of the University of Aberdeen. For more information: www.ruminomics.eu The RuminOmics research project has received support by the European Commission under the FP7 programme. Programme The RuminOmics Technical Visit will start 9:00 and will contain a visit and tour at the Nottingham experimental farm with expert contributions of Prof. John Wallace (University of Aberdeen), Prof. Phil Garnsworthy (University of Nottingham), Prof. Pekka Huhtanen (Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences).
