Scott Duggan's research addresses critical issues in livestock production systems: optimizing forage quality for cattle, sheep, and swine; managing pasture ecosystems; and mitigating zoonotic disease risks like cryptosporidiosis. His work also investigates toxic plants in pastures, swine pest management, and sustainable practices for small-acreage horse farms. Through extension efforts, he develops practical resources for producers across the Pacific Northwest.
Recent publications demonstrate Scott Duggan's focus on agronomic challenges and animal health. His work covers pasture management calendars (2024), equine hay evaluation (2024), nonstructural carbohydrates in horse forages (2023), laminitis prevention (2022), cryptosporidiosis risks (2021), and invasive plant control (2018). These contributions reflect his commitment to translating research into actionable extension resources for livestock producers.
