Research interests
Lorna’s current interests include using a holistic and multidisciplinary approach to improve understanding of how farmers manage their farm businesses. Understanding the decision choices of farmers and the factors that influence them is central to most of the research that Lorna does. Related to this other interests include assessing the impact of knowledge exchange programmes, transferring knowledge to “the next generation” and the barriers to uptake of innovations. Her PhD is using machine learning methodologies to better understand farmers’ antibiotic use. |
