Some cows and a little bit of Science. Hatherland Galloways - Riggits, Belties and Whites.

Is it a @BSAS_org conference without this slide? #phenotypeisking

@dadyo32 has added a new one too. #bigcowsarebad

[GGAB_Roslin_SRUC @GgabRoslinSRUC]

Using dynamic models of climate change effects on pastures, a very informative talk by Martha Dellar at #BSAS2019 from @SRUC and @EdinburghUni

[Harriet Bunning @HarrietBunning]

Always enjoy presenting at @BSAS_org annual conference

[GGAB_Roslin_SRUC @GgabRoslinSRUC]

Amazing talk by Harriet Bunning from @SRUC @EdinburghUni and @ctlgh_info about crossbreeding strategies for Boran cattle in Ethiopia at #BSAS2019

[SRUC @SRUC]

Nearly 50 postgraduate students presented their work at SRUC's two-day conference showcasing research.

Joint-winners of the oral paper competition were Harriet Bunning and Aluna Chawala, who will represent SRUC at the @SEFARIscot competition in May.

It's not easy running through this snow but Luna doesn't seem to mind.

Penguins! 🐧
Very lucky to have seen some wild yellow eyed penguins near Dunedin. I have now… https://t.co/tHRxRe05Tb

Birdsong on Tiritiri Matangi Island today. Mostly bellbirds with possibly the odd stichbird. @… https://t.co/831JxBLt4h

@leenybum @kkasejaSRUC @SRUCStudents @ScienceSeaweed Luckily you didn't because I already had one. Steph did mention that you'd bought her the same.

Paul Boettcher speaking about conservation of farm animal genetic resources as part of the UN sustainable development goals and the need for monitoring of breeds and the importance of gene banks @ICAR_WCGALP2018 @RBSTrarebreeds

[Harriet Bunning @HarrietBunning]

An opportunity for @RBSTrarebreeds to do something similar?

[Harriet Bunning @HarrietBunning]

Interesting to hear how genotyping is being used in conservation efforts for the Namaqua Afrikaner, an indigenous sheep breed in South Africa, particularly to measure inbreeding and introgression. @ICAR_WCGALP2018

[Harriet Bunning @HarrietBunning]

Presenting my poster at 3.30pm on screen 1, down on the bottom floor at @ICAR_WCGALP2018. Come find me to chat African cattle and crossbreeding.

[Harriet Bunning @HarrietBunning]

Great to see a presentation more close to my heart with some breed conservation of lineback cattle. Veronika Kukučková presents her work on the population structure of Slovak Pinzgauer cattle. @ICAR_WCGALP2018

[Harriet Bunning @HarrietBunning]

Enjoying Anne Muigai's presentation on the importance of sheep and goats to allow communities to survive challenges of climate change, particularly for women, and the potential of genetic improvement of these small ruminants. @ICAR_WCGALP2018 @ILRI

[Harriet Bunning @HarrietBunning]

Great to hear a talk so close to my own research: results of beef crossbreeding strategies in South Africa from Anette Theunissen, showing the potential to use combinations of diverse breeds to increase efficiency @ICAR_WCGALP2018

[Harriet Bunning @HarrietBunning]

To start the Breeding Strategies session, something a little different: Genomic selection in honey bees from Pim Brascamp. Bee's different genetic structure and mating systems make for an interesting challenge. @ICAR_WCGALP2018

More efficient cows are better for the environment: Dr Cheryl Quinton of @AbacusBioNZ presenting at #WCGALP
Proud to be part of such a superb team!

Irene Breider showing it is possible to reduce methane production without sacrificing increases in milk production through selection indices. @ICAR_WCGALP2018
