Our researchers provide professional consulting and advice in the following fields:
Feed production, animal nutrition and agroecology
- recommendations to improve cattle nutrition
- laboratory analyses and tests (in vitro and in vivo tests) of feeds and prediction of their nutritional value
- issues related to management and maintenance of permanent grasslands depending on the site conditions and the purpose of using permanent grasslands biomass
- evaluation of the quality and botanical composition of permanent grasslands and recommendations for ways to improve their productional capability
- assessment of the floristic composition and biodiversity of grasslands in specially protected areas
Pedology
- perform sampling and testing of soils
- evaluation of soil quality indicators (physical and chemical indicators)
- monitoring of nutritional and hygienic parameters of soil, contention of macro- and micronutrients (including risk elements), their bio mobile availability for plants
- verifying the effect of soil additives, chemical, and organic fertilizers
Breeding and reproduction
- solving current problems of cattle breeding and reproduction
- genetic evaluation of growth and reproductive indicators
- successful crossbreeding of beef breed cows with Wagyu bulls to improve meat quality
Quality of animal products
- interpretation of the impact of nutrition on milk quality and composition in dairy cows
- problematics of metabolism of minor components in dairy cattle and their transfer to milk
- nutritional factors affecting meat quality
Laboratory analyses
- basic analysis of milk composition
- milk microbiology testing (TPC-total plate count; bacteriological examination of milk samples, e.g., Staphylococcus aureus)
- testing quality of drinking, surface waters, groundwater, and wastewater
- microbiological analyses of drinking and surface waters
- determination of macro- and micronutrients (including risk elements) in soils, waters, and feeds
