Biography

I have a livestock background and work on feed intake, feeding and 
grazing strategies for sheep. 
I did my doctorate on meat quality in lambs that are finished on different 
types of pasture or on forage.
I work primarily towards greenhouse gases from ruminants and at Tjøtta 
we have built up an approved animal testing department for sheep. 
We have the option of individual feeding of up to 24 animals. 
We have 6 respiratory chambers for measuring enteric methane production from sheep
 and 6 metabolism boxes for measuring feed utilization in sheep. 
Lastly, we have 9 castrated rams. 
Otherwise we get access to animals from Tjøtta farm.
