OverviewAI-generated summary

E. B. Kegley's research interests encompass animal health, nutrition, and production, with a focus on beef cattle and small ruminants. Kegley has investigated the impact of various dietary supplements and management practices on animal performance and health. This includes studies on the effects of trace minerals, bambermycin or monensin, and condensed tannin on cattle and ewes. Additionally, research has explored the respiratory microbiota of feedlot cattle and its association with disease, as well as the effects of different anthelmintic regimens on postweaning performance and reproductive measurements in beef heifers.

Further research has examined agronomic practices, such as tillage methods and seeding rates for wheat pasture, and their influence on forage production and calf performance. Kegley's work also extends to leveraging technology for animal science, as indicated by a recent publication on a cattle facial landmark benchmark. With a career marked by extensive publication, Kegley has achieved a high-impact researcher designation, evidenced by an h-index of 30 and over 2,900 citations. Kegley leads a research group and collaborates with several colleagues at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville, including Jeremy G Powell, Robin A Cheek, Brittni P Littlejohn, and Doug L Galloway.
