PHONE: (919) 515-8743E-MAIL: jean-marie_luginbuhl@ncsu.eduLeader of the Meat Goat and Forage Systems Research and Extension Program. His interests focus on the development of sustainable forage/browse-based feeding and management systems for meat goats. Current research include the evaluation of cool- and warm-season annual and perennial forages for meat goats, the use of meat goats in biocontrol of weed and brush-infested pastures and woodlots, the browse potential of fodder tree species in agroforestry systems for meat goats, the development of non-pharmaceutical approaches for the control of gastrointestinal parasites of meat goats, the evaluation of byproduct feeds as protein and/or energy sources for meat goats fed forage-based diets, and the determination of copper nutritional requirements and tolerance for meat goats.
