About

Sabine Ferneborg’s research centers on dairy science, with a particular focus on cow-calf contact (CCC) systems and their impact on milk production, animal welfare, and farm profitability. Her major contribution lies in developing practical methods to quantify milk loss in CCC systems equipped with automatic milking, addressing a critical gap in assessing individual cow efficiency. Her 2023 paper, “Proposed methods for estimating loss of saleable milk in a cow-calf contact system with automatic milking,” has garnered 13 citations, reflecting its importance in refining data collection for dairy operations. Ferneborg’s work is notable for bridging animal behavior and agricultural economics, offering solutions that balance ethical farming practices with productivity. Her achievements include advancing methodologies that help farmers make informed decisions, ensuring that CCC systems remain viable without compromising economic sustainability. For students and researchers, Ferneborg’s research underscores the complexity of integrating welfare-oriented practices into modern dairy management, highlighting the need for innovative measurement tools to support both animal and farm outcomes.
