I am working with a project titled ”Increased intake in dairy cows by adjusting the quality of starch to the degradation of grass silage in the rumen”. In my PhD studies, I will mainly focus on different sources of starches, effects of processing on different sources of starch, and effects of maturity of grass silages. The effects of interactions between starch sources and grass maturity on rumen degradation and feeding behavior will also be investigated.
