Primary Research Interests

Twenty-first century production animal agriculture involving free-ranging animals is mandated to include more than just maximizing numbers, size or amounts.  Animal welfare as well as maintaining or improving the ecological stewardship of landscapes are pivotal issues that are being addresses, not only because of legislation but because of their economic impact on producers.

The focus of Dr. Anderson’s 30+ year research career has been to use animal behavior to accomplish ecologically valid goals within a practical and flexible framework of management.  This has involved melding innate animal behaviors with state-of-art electronics to accomplish management goals.  Examples of this research approach   include: autonomously obtaining cow liveweights using electronic animal identification coupled with the animal’s need to drink water, monitoring  botanical composition of pre- and post-digested plant samples using fluorometry to provide the nutritional basis for controlling where and when animals are on a particular landscape by using directional virtual fencing (DVF™).  Expanding the possibilities of mixed species stocking by incorporating DVF™ with the development of flerds to minimizes the negative impact canine predation has on small ruminants when large and small ruminants are stocked together.
