Methane Emissions From Dairy Goats Can Be Measured Using Cattle Respiration Chambers

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
Reducing methane emissions from dairy goat production is essential for meeting sustainability targets and consumer expectations. Accurate quantification of enteric methane per unit of feed intake is a prerequisite for developing emission inventories and mitigation strategies.

Effect of barley preservation method on milk production and milk quality in organic farming [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The effect of dried vs. ensiled barley (cv. Arve) on feed intake, milk yield and quality in organic production was tested in two experiments in Northern Norway. In the first experiment, two groups were given either 40% or 10% concentrated feed (barley)

Potential of Pornunça Hay to Improve the Fermentation Profile, Yield, and Chemical Composition of Spineless Cactus‐Based Silage

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study evaluated the fermentation profile, losses, aerobic stability, microbial populations, and nutritional value of silages produced from spineless cactus forage with increasing levels of pornunça hay. A completely randomized design with five treatments (0%, 7.5%, 15.0%, 22.5%, and 30.0% pornunça hay on a natural matter basis) and five replicates

Cassava Hay Inclusion Improves Fermentation Profile and Quality of Spineless Forage Cactus Silage

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study evaluated the chemical composition, fermentation profile, microbial populations, aerobic stability, and fermentative losses of spineless forage cactus silage supplemented with varying levels of cassava hay (0%, 7.5%, 15.0%, 22.5%, and 30.0% on a fresh matter basis).

Co-Ensiling of Wheat Straw as an Alternative Pre-Treatment to Chemical, Hydrothermal and Mechanical Methods for Methane Production

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Wheat straw without pre-treatment is only converted to methane to a low degree during anaerobic digestion for fuel production due to its low hydrolysis. Current pre-treatment technologies are challenged by high expenses to energy or chemical agents.
