Marion Cantillon
Walsh ScholarResearch Interests
My main interest is the contribution to climate change from agriculture. I am also keen on researching the financial implications of the various mitigation strategies and their implications on farm level. Throughout my PhD, I will focus on developing an optimised decision support tool for livestock systems to be used at farm level. You can follow my updates on my Twitter account @MarionCantillion.

I am also involved in the COCOREADO project focusing on strengthening the position on the farmer on the supply chain. https://cocoreado.eu/
