Integrating animal and crop production systems at the farm-scale in subtropical areas

Manipulating the nutrition and metabolism of ruminants; improving grassland utilization in hilly regions; integrating dairy industry with  crop-farming systems; improving the stability of grassland  productivity ;  and  studying  the  restoration  of degenerated grassland ecosystem.
