Dr. Wickersham directs
research in ruminant nutrition with an interest in forage
utilization and nitrogen metabolism. His previous research
has focused on protein supplementation to cattle consuming
low-quality forage and nitrogen metabolism in cattle
consuming diets that are deficient in nitrogen. Future
research goals include determining optimum supplementation
strategies for ruminants consuming forages of divergent
nutritive values and furthering our understanding of
nitrogen metabolism in ruminants.
