Lisanne Koning

Lisanne Koning is a researcher and PhD candidate in Animal Nutrition at Wageningen University & Research, focusing on methane emissions from dairy cattle. Her work explores the interplay between dietary factors, rumen microbiomes, and environmental impacts.

• Current research includes farm-level microbial community analysis and methane intensity in dairy systems
• Active projects investigate fresh grass diets, grazing management, and rumen microbiome engineering

Her studies, such as "Farm conditions shape microbial communities..." (2025) and "Minimum number of spot measurements..." (2024), reveal trends in methane quantification, rumen microbiome manipulation, and sustainable feeding strategies. She collaborates with institutions like Wageningen Livestock Research on LVVN-funded projects, including KE2023 B3 Grassland Management and NAPRO initiatives.

• Research Networks: European Grassland Federation, NCBI BioProject collaborations
• Methodologies: GreenFeed technology, sniffer systems for methane measurement

Lisanne leads datasets and projects on dairy cattle nutrition, with a focus on practical applications for reducing environmental impacts through improved grazing systems and feed formulations.
