Muhammad Moiez Ahmad

PhD Walsh Scholar - Sustainable livestock production

Research Interests

Muhammad’s research is dedicated to tackling livestock enteric methane emissions, a major contributor to climate change. His work explores how exogenous lactic acid bacteria (LAB) can be used to reduce enteric methane emissions in beef cattle while maintaining animal health and productivity. By studying the rumen microbiome, he aims to develop direct-fed microbials (DFMs) that can be safely and effectively incorporated into livestock diets. He has expertise in in-vitro fermentation techniques and rumen microbiome research and is experienced in conducting both laboratory and animal trials. His work contributes to the broader goal of making livestock farming more sustainable and economically viable.
