Sustainable Production Systems
Research encompasses the development of highly profitable sustainable production systems, farm bio-economic and biophysical modeling, development of precision farming systems encompassing increases in energy and labour efficiency plus the production of meat and milk of high safety/quality. Additionally, it encompasses the use of demonstration farms and decision support tools to assist the adoption of key technologies.
