🌿 Reconciliation of agriculture and biodiversity is possible! Davy McCracken and coauthors identifies pathways like agroecology and conflict transformation to support biodiversity alongside farming. #WorldFoodDay #AgriBiodiversity #GlobalCollaboration sciencedirect.com/science/articl…



🌾 SRUC Research collaboration on aligning UK food systems with the EAT-Lancet diet shows healthier diets can reduce emissions while boosting food security. Regional cooperation is key to success. #WorldFoodDay #Sustainability #Collaboration sciencedirect.com/science/articl…



SRUC Research study uses UAVs to monitor atrazine's impact on crops! Strong links found between DEA levels & plant health, highlighting the potential of UAVs in precision farming. 🌱🌍 #UAVs #GlobalCollaboration #PrecisionFarming sciencedirect.com/science/articl…


Latest SRUC Research report on SSBSS calving intervals. This report looks at calving seasonality and 410 day calving interval threshold as well as on-holding-of birth calf mortality by 12 months. Funded by Scot Gov Rural SEFARI Gateway ruralexchange.scot/policy/calving…


"This is the first calf that's been born and bred expressly for reduced methane emissions in dairy cows." Professor Mike Coffey tells Sky's Leah Boleto why the birth of Hilda, the first calf to be born via IVF, is "a big moment". trib.al/Rx0iR33

Thanks Good Morning Britain & Jonathan Swain for stopping by @sruc to meet Hilda & Mike Coffey #phenotypeisking https://t.co/1ZZ2FBBs. 🐄 She’s been bred based on her genomic result for methane emissions combined with IVF and sexed semen. 🧬 The application of these tools could reduce GHGs by 20-25% in just 5-6 years. 💨


One of SRUC’s most #HighlyCited papers of the last decade! Jolinda Pollock's review on bias in 16S rRNA metabarcoding has shaped how researchers approach microbial community studies. 🦠 journals.asm.org/doi/epdf/10.11… #Microbiome #WomenInScience #SRUCResearch SRUC Veterinary Services
