Enteric methane mitigation interventions

Translational Animal Science, 2022
AbstractMitigation of enteric methane (CH4) presents a feasible approach to curbing agriculture’s contribution to climate change. One intervention for reduction is dietary reformulation, which manipulates the composition of feedstuffs in ruminant diets to redirect fermentation processes toward low CH4 emissions.

Invited review: Current enteric methane mitigation options

Journal of Dairy Science, 2022
El ganado rumiante es una fuente importante de metano antropogénico (CH4). Disminuir las emisiones de CH4 entérico de la producción de rumiantes es estratégico para limitar el aumento de la temperatura global a 1,5 °C para 2050. La investigación en el área de la mitigación entérica de CH4 ha crecido exponencialmente en las últimas 2 décadas, y se están

Enteric Methane Emission from Pigs [PDF]

, 2011
The modern pig industry rely on relatively few feedstuffs mostly from cereals (corn, wheat, barley, oats, rye and rice), cereal co-products (different milling fractions, residues from biofuel and alcohol industries, etc.), cereal substitutes (tapioca, maniocca), legumes (peas, beans, lupins), protein concentrates (meal or cakes of soybean, rape ...

Enteric methane emissions in grazing dairy systems

JDS Communications, 2023
Approximately 80% of agricultural CH4 comes from livestock systems, with 90% of that derived from enteric CH4 production by ruminants. Grazing systems are used worldwide to feed dairy cattle. Although quantifying enteric CH4 emissions in grazing systems has unique challenges, emerging technologies have made gaseous data collection more feasible and ...

Prediction of enteric methane emissions from cattle [PDF]

Global Change Biology, 2014
AbstractAgriculture has a key role in food production worldwide and it is a major component of the gross domestic product of several countries. Livestock production is essential for the generation of high quality protein foods and the delivery of foods in regions where animal products are the main food source.

Key Considerations for the Use of Seaweed to Reduce Enteric Methane Emissions From Cattle

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
Enteric methane emissions are the single largest source of direct greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) in beef and dairy value chains and a substantial contributor to anthropogenic methane emissions globally.

Maize silage for dairy cows: mitigation of methane emissions can be offset bij and use change [PDF]

, 2006
Increasing the digestibility of cattle rations by feeding grains and whole plant silages from maize have been identified as effective options to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. The effect of ploughing grassland for maize crops have not been taken into

Solutions to enteric methane abatement in Ireland

Irish Journal of Agricultural and Food Research, 2022
The efficiency of Ireland’s grass-based livestock systems can be attributed to high outputs, low production costs and a low carbon footprint relative to housed systems. Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas (GHG) of which enteric fermentation from livestock production is a key source, being directly responsible for 57% of Irish agricultural GHG ...

Short communication: Relationship of dry matter intake with enteric methane emission measured with the GreenFeed system in dairy cows receiving a diet without or with 3-nitrooxypropanol

Animal, 2020
The relationship between DM intake (DMI) and enteric methane emission is well established in ruminant animals but may depend on measurement technique (e.g. spot v. continuous gas sampling) and rumen environment (e.g. use of fermentation modifiers).

Estimation of the methane emission factor for the Italian Mediterranean buffalo [PDF]

, 2008
In order to contribute to the improvement of the national greenhouse gas emission inventory, this work aimed at estimating a country-specific enteric methane (CH4) emission factor for the Italian Mediterranean buffalo.
