Andre Bannink

Andre Bannink is a senior researcher at Wageningen University's Animal Nutrition department, specializing in sustainable dairy farming systems. His work focuses on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and optimizing nutrient efficiency in livestock, particularly through methane mitigation strategies and nitrogen/phosphorus balance studies.

• Key research areas: Methane Emissions, Rumen Microbiology, Greenhouse Gas Mitigation
• Active projects: Milk urea for nitrogen efficiency, Methane-reducing feed additives, Grassland methane reduction

Recent research explores dietary interventions for methane mitigation, including 3-nitrooxypropanol, and evaluates the impacts of low-phosphorus diets on dairy cow health. His publications emphasize process-based modeling of emissions and practical feed additive guidelines.

Andre collaborates extensively on international projects and supervises PhD candidates. He contributes to climate policy discussions, with media appearances on topics like grassland methane reduction and sustainable livestock innovations.
