Dr. Juliana Ranches, assistant professor and beef extension specialist at Oregon State University, joins Lauren on Cattle USA Daily to break down her research into methane emissions, grazing cattle, soil carbon and the surprising role seaweed could play in the future of cattle nutrition. Her research takes a holistic look at the entire grazing system, with the goal of finding supplementation strategies that don't just reduce methane emissions, but can also improve cattle efficiency, productivity and the return for producers.
