Grant Fincham is a Ph.D., student with a specialization in ruminant nutrition. His research focus is related to dairy cattle nutrition with an emphasis on whole animal energy utilization. Within the dairy metabolism facility, we are able to measure feed intake, milk production, energy and N utilization, chewing activity, manure output, and enteric methane production in lactating dairy cows.
