Steinfeld Lecture Series

AgResearch was a principal sponsor of three public lectures that stimulated debate about the impact of livestock on the environment. Leading international greenhouse gas expert Dr Henning Steinfeld was a panel guest at each of the events. The debated topic is a hot one for AgResearch that does extensive research around the mitigation of agricultural greenhouse gas emissions in New Zealand, while simultaneously helping farmers increase production levels to meet demand.
