The lab studies livestock productivity through microbiota and constitution.
AboutAbout the lab
Exploring productivity and constitution through cattle and goats
The Livestock Production Ecology Lab conducts research on ruminant livestock at the farm on Ito Campus and at the Highland Agricultural Experiment and Training Station in Oita Prefecture.
At Ito Campus, the lab works with dairy cattle and goats and analyzes the relationship between the microbiota and productivity.
At the Highland Agricultural Experiment and Training Station, located in Aso-Kuju National Park, the lab investigates the mechanisms that regulate the constitution of cattle and how to manage it, in order to solve problems in beef production. It uses methods from molecular biology, morphology, physiology, and livestock management.
Key terms
- Microbiota
- The community of bacteria living in the body. Researchers examine its composition and proportions to see how it relates to productivity.
- Sensing technology
- Technology that uses sensors to measure and record the condition of livestock.
- Constitutional regulation mechanism
- The mechanisms by which the constitution of cattle is formed and regulated.
ResearchResearch themes
This lab uses ruminant livestock to study the relationship between the microbiota and productivity, as well as the mechanisms that regulate the constitution of cattle and how to manage it. The research is carried out separately at the farm on Ito Campus and at the Highland Agricultural Experiment and Training Station.
