Research Interests
“Effects of β-carotene on reproductive function in Japanese Black cows”
”Characteristics of β-carotene in roughage and its application to cattle feeding management."
Profile
Outline Activities
Phytochemicals, such as β-carotene and polyphenols, possess antioxidant properties in plants. Phytochemicals contribute to maintaining immune and reproductive functions in cattle. My research activities aims to elucidate the mechanisms and effects of phytochemicals in cattle, ultimately establishing a sustainable feeding management system for Japanese Black cattle by effectively utilizing plant-based resources in Japan.
Message
The need for sustainable cattle feeding and management technologies is growing due to global warming and environmental concerns. I hold the view that utilizing bioactive compounds in grass to enhance cattle productivity and optimizing their utilization will contribute to a more sustainable livestock industry.
