Invited review: Current enteric methane mitigation options
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

A Review of Enteric Methane Emission Measurement Techniques in Ruminants [PDF]
To identify relationships between animal, dietary and management factors and the resulting methane (CH4) emissions, and to identify potential mitigation strategies for CH4 production, it is vital to develop reliable and accurate CH4 measurement techniques.

Enteric Methane Emission from Pigs [PDF]
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 ...

Relationship between residual feed intake and enteric methane emission in Nellore cattle
Feed intake and average daily gain (ADG) in Nellore cattle were determined to calculate residual feed intake in two performance tests: first during the growth phase (RFIgrowth) and then during a measurement of the methane emission phase (RFImet).

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).

Predicting enteric methane production from cattle in the tropics
Accurate estimates of methane (CH4) production by cattle in different contexts are essential to developing mitigation strategies in different regions. We aimed to: (i) compile a database of CH4 emissions from Brazilian cattle studies, (ii) evaluate prediction precision and accuracy of extant proposed equations for cattle and (iii) develop specialized ...

Factors influencing dietary tannin inclusion in dairy diets: A review [PDF]
T The objective of this paper was to evaluate factors affecting tannin dietary inclusion on enteric methane emission (CH4) and performance in dairy cows. Dairy production contributes to the greenhouse effect as it naturally emits enteric CH4.

The Netherlands aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 49% in 2030 compared to 1990. In order to achieve this goal the dairy sector needs to reduce methane (CH4) emissions by 1.0 megaton CO2-equivalents compared to 2017. Approximately 80% of the CH4 emission of the dairy sector originates from enteric CH4.
