About
Ingunn Schei is a leading researcher in sustainable dairy production, with a primary focus on the intersection of animal nutrition, forage management, and environmental impact. Her work centers on understanding how silage composition—derived from different grassland species and harvesting frequencies—influences both milk yield and methane emissions in dairy cows. In her most-cited study (2024, 4 citations), Schei demonstrated that strategic forage management can optimize feed intake and milk production while mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, a critical contribution to climate-smart agriculture. Her research provides actionable insights for farmers seeking to balance productivity with environmental stewardship. By linking agronomic practices to animal performance and emission metrics, Schei’s work has helped shape best practices in Nordic dairy systems. Though early in her citation trajectory, her findings are already informing sustainable intensification strategies. Schei’s research is particularly notable for its systems-level approach, integrating crop science, animal physiology, and climate science—a model for future work in agricultural sustainability.
