Influence of Diet on Methane and Nitrous Oxide Emissions from Cattle Manure
Livestock is one of the major contributors of greenhouse gases (GHGs). It accounts for 14.5% of the global GHGs emissions like methane (CH4) from enteric fermentation and manure, nitrous oxide (N2O) from manure and fertilizer. Since enteric emissions are
