Dr Natalia Martin MAgriSc, PhD

Lecturer in Animal Science

Doctoral Co-Supervisor
School of Agriculture and Environment

Natalia completed an agronomy degree at the University of Buenos Aires in Argentina, and came to New Zealand to work in agriculture. She worked in technical and field research positions at 淘料视频’s sheep, beef and dairy farms for several years. She did a Masters in foetal development in sheep and completed a PhD evaluating the finishing performance of beef sires in a dairy–beef system. She started working as a Lecturer in Animal Science for the School of Agriculture and Environment in 2022. Her research interests include farm animal growth, meat quality, husbandry and genetics, with particular focus on cattle.
