Dr. Barbara Roqueto dos Reis is an Assistant Professor at Mississippi State University, affiliated with the Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station. Her primary research focuses on enhancing beef cattle system productivity and sustainability through innovative nutritional strategies, resource optimization, and advanced sensor technologies. She explores the intersection of precision agriculture and livestock management to improve ecological balance and production efficiency.
Her research emphasizes rumen fermentation dynamics, livestock health monitoring via sensor integration (e.g., glucose, pH, and UV sensors), and machine learning applications for behavior classification. Key themes include dietary disruptions, heat stress mitigation, and robotic health monitoring systems for ruminants.
Dr. dos Reis’ publications reflect interdisciplinary approaches, combining animal science, engineering, and computational methods. She has contributed to advancements in UV sensor development, Bayesian network modeling for meta-analysis, and systems-oriented analyses of livestock physiology.
Her work addresses real-world challenges in precision livestock farming, including subcutaneous/vaginal temperature monitoring in grazing cows and the use of additive Bayesian networks for complex systems. She also investigates the effects of endophyte-infected forages and supplementation strategies on livestock health.
