Dr. Luiz Ferraretto: Forage Impact on Dairy Behavior | Ep. 01
Welcome to The Dairy Nutrition Blackbelt! I am Bill Weiss, and this marks our inaugural episode. Please make yourself comfortable. Today, I had the privilege of hosting Dr. Luiz Ferraretto, an Assistant Professor and Ruminant Nutrition Extension Specialist at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Our conversation centered on feeding behavior — a critical determinant of an animal's overall productivity and well-being. In our discussion, we explored the relationship between forage quality and feeding behavior, variations in resting and rumination periods relative to feed consumption, and the distinct behaviors elicited by corn silage versus sorghum silage.Meet the guest: Dr. Luiz Ferraretto ExperienceAssistant Professor and Ruminant Nutrition Extension Specialist at University of Wisconsin-MadisonBackgroundB.Sc., Animal Sciences (Universidade Federal Paulista "Júlio de Mesquita Filho" - UNESP);M.Sc., Dairy Science (University of Wisconsin-Madison)Ph.D., Dairy Science (University of Wisconsin-Madison) Connect with our guest on Social Media: LinkedInThe Dairy Podcast Show is trusted and supported by innovative companies like:* Adisseo
