What is he best known for?
The fields of study he is best known for:
- Agriculture
- Biochemistry
- Animal science
Roger Hegarty spends much of his time researching Animal science, Agronomy, Rumen, Residual feed intake and Feed conversion ratio.
His Animal science research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Ruminant, Biotechnology, Animal nutrition, Livestock and Retention time.
His work deals with themes such as Grazing and Greenhouse gas, which intersect with Livestock.
His Rumen study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Digestion, Methanogenesis and Fatty acid.
His research integrates issues of Agriculture and Beef cattle in his study of Residual feed intake.
The Fermentation study combines topics in areas such as Nitrate, Propionate and Methane.
His most cited work include:
- Cattle selected for lower residual feed intake have reduced daily methane production. (323 citations)
- Reducing rumen methane emissions through elimination of rumen protozoa (168 citations)
- Relationship between animal age, intramuscular fat, cooking loss, pH, shear force and eating quality of aged meat from sheep (154 citations)
