KEY EXPERTISE AND EXPERIENCE NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT
Development
* Livestock production with particular reference to sustainable farming systems in tropical developing countries: specialism in livestock nutrition (ruminant and non-ruminant), livestock economics and environmental assessment.
* Development of integrated concepts for agricultural development in different agro-
climatic zones: eg oilseed-livestock, root crops-livestock, agroforestry-livestock and
small grains-livestock.
* Project planning, monitoring and evaluation in relation to adaptive animal feed
technology transfer.
* Collaborating with non-governmental organisations to encourage the uptake of
research-generated technologies.
* Advising organisations and personnel in developing countries on nutritional,
toxicological and husbandry aspects of livestock production.
* Analysing policy issues relating to economic, environmental and socio-cultural aspects
of livestock production (one major study of urban livestock production in
Eastern India).
Research
* Extensive research on
- Nutritional value of human foods.
- Medicinal value of tropical plant products.
- Nutritional and anti-nutritional principles in agricultural commodities for livestock.
- Plane of nutrition appropriate for small-scale livestock production systems in the rural areas of developing countries.
- Toxicological effects of environmental contaminants (including fungal, gaseous) and
food and feed adulterants.
- Diet modifications for reducing methane generation by dairy cows to reduce global
warming.
Teaching and training
* Training personnel from developing countries on animal nutrition, and bioassays for detecting environmental toxins. Teaching undergraduates.
