Academic Advisor in the Central Advising Office

Extension and outreach activities have focused primarily in 4-H/FFA youth programs and in cow/calf management. Areas of interest include nutrition, management, trace-mineral supplementation, performance bull testing, livestock evaluation and selection, and registered purebred cattle. Guidance and assistance are provided in coordinating the State FFA Livestock Judging Contests as well as in assisting with county, district, and state 4-H contests.

Areas of research have included applied studies in the growth and development of bulls, cow/calf management, and feedlot nutrition. His research is directly applicable to the beef cattle industry and has elucidated solutions to problems affecting the efficacy of beef cattle performance and management. Considerable work has focused on selenium, copper, and zinc supplemental levels in salt-mineral mixtures for weaned calves, gestating cows, and growing bulls. Studies have been conducted to examine the effects of trace-mineral supplementation on immune function in beef cattle.
