In case you missed it! Join Dr. Tom Jenkins as he shares a recap of the findings he presented at ADSA on the impact that varying levels of starch degradability have on rumen fermentation and biohydrogenation intermediates. This important topic adds additional insights into the varying risk factors affecting milk fat depression and was shared this week in Orlando, Florida, at the 2015 American Dairy Science Association annual meeting.

Dr. Jenkins attended Penn State University for his BS and MS degrees, and received a Ph.D. at Cornell University. After a postdoc at The Ohio State University, he then moved to Clemson University where he continued work on dairy cattle nutrition for over 30 years. Dr. Jenkins taught undergraduate and graduate courses in nutrition and coordinated a research program on use of fat in diets for dairy cattle including basic work on rumen lipid metabolism. He has published extensively in scientific journals and conference proceedings, and has given numerous invited presentations across more than ten countries on lipid metabolism in dairy cattle and the practical aspects of fat feeding. Dr. Jenkins has received several awards from Clemson University and The American Dairy Association for his research accomplishments in rumen lipid metabolism.
