Research summary

Alejandro E Relling studies the nutrition, digestion, and metabolism of livestock, especially cattle and sheep, with a focus on how diet composition (such as fatty acids, protein levels, and rumen additives) affects animal growth, feed efficiency, carcass quality, and reproductive or metabolic health. Much of the work involves feedlot and grazing trials examining practical feeding strategies, along with more mechanistic studies of rumen fermentation, fatty acid metabolism, and hormonal effects on growth. This research is aimed at improving livestock production efficiency and animal health outcomes for the agricultural industry.
