Talking about: Tips & Tricks for Soil and Roughage Analysis (Sponsor)
At this table topics like soil and roughage/feed analysis will be discussed with Karst Brolsma (Agronomy Researcher) and Bob Fabri (Product Manager Livestock) at Eurofins Agro Wageningen, the Netherlands.
I grew up at a cattle farm in Friesland, the Netherlands and I have a background in animal, plant and soil sciences. After completion I worked at the Grass Science Institute and focused on fatty acid composition of ruminants and roughage. It always fascinated me to see what happens under our feet and how that affects plant growth. My Ph.D research focused on soil microorganisms and how they are affected by plant traits. The link between crop development and the underground world is still largely unknown. Fortunately, that is slowly but surely changing. Currently, I am working as a agronomy researcher at Eurofins Agro in Wageningen (The Netherlands). Assessing soil fertility is one of our key businesses.
