About

A young researcher, from farm to table

Kresna Bhayu Adelta is an Indonesian animal scientist and Ph.D. student in Applied Bioresource Science at the United Graduate School of Agricultural Sciences, Ehime University, Japan. He also lectures at IPB University, where he earned both his bachelor's (2021) and M.Sc. (2023) in Animal Science.

His work links the lab to real food systems: testing the quality and safety of local poultry meat, reading disease patterns in live bird markets, and designing circular, halal-compliant production models. His studies have taken him from Indonesia to Korea as an exchange student and now to Japan.
