Hans Lindberg

Agronomist Hans Lindberg is an animal husbandry advisor at Sweden’s Växa association that focuses on milk and meat producers. His extroverted nature and good contacts with researchers, advisors and farmers make him an important link between SLU’s research and practice. He has worked tirelessly to ensure that agricultural producers adopt new findings relating to the feeding of dairy cows and on the utilisation of ley pastures. Furthermore, he has drawn SLU’s attention towards new needs-motivated research questions. His ongoing achievements include contributions to the work with Vallprognos.se, a science-based tool for harvesting the best possible fodder at the right time, as well as the development of optimisation software for dairy cow feed. He was also the driving force behind the creation of a dairy conference that is organised by the industry and SLU every three years.
