Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

B. R. Kutz's research focuses on animal reproduction and production, with recent publications examining reproductive protocols and performance in beef cattle. One publication from 2024 and another from 2023 compare GnRH administration timing within synchronized estrus protocols for fixed-time artificial insemination in beef heifers. Additionally, a 2022 publication evaluates the impact of winter hair coat shedding on the performance of crossbred Angus cows and their calves in Arkansas. Kutz's work contributes to understanding and improving livestock management practices. With an h-index of 5 and 153 total citations across 24 publications, Kutz has a record of scholarship in this field. Key collaborators at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville include Jeremy G. Powell, Kirsten A. Midkiff, C.R. Looney, and Clayton E. Schowe, with whom Kutz has co-authored multiple publications.
