Measurement and prediction of enteric methane emission
International Journal of Biometeorology, 2010The greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the agricultural sector account for about 25.5% of total global anthropogenic emission. While CO(2) receives the most attention as a factor relative to global warming, CH(4), N(2)O and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) also cause significant radiative forcing.

Methane Emission from Enteric Fermentation: Methanogenesis and Fermentation
2015Rumen fermentation of carbohydrates plays a fundamental role in ruminant metabolism as the main source of energy. Acetic, propionic and butyric acids (namely, volatile fatty acids, VFA) are the main products of the rumen fermentation of structural and nonstructural carbohydrates contained in the ruminant’s diet.

Enteric Methane Emission Under Different Feeding Systems
2015Methane is a potent greenhouse gas (GHG) which is responsible for global warming, and it is about 23 times more potent than carbon dioxide and is produced worldwide by biotic and anthropogenic activity. Increased industrialisation in the past few decades and an increase in global human population have increased the demand of food particularly of animal

Enteric Methane Emission and Reduction Strategies in Sheep
2017Climate change is associated with the anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs) like carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) is widely evident throughout the world. CH4 is considered one of the major GHGs, 20 times more potent than CO2, contributing to 15–20% of total global GHG emission.

Effect of silage characteristics on enteric methane emission from ruminants.
CABI Reviews, 2019Abstract This review evaluates the effects of silage characteristics on enteric methane (CH 4 ) emission from ruminants by performing a meta-analysis. A total of 17 studies were selected from the literature, and the relationship between CH 4 yield (g/kg dry matter [DM] intake) and ...

Editing microbes to mitigate enteric methane emissions in livestock
World Journal of Microbiology and BiotechnologyLivestock production significantly contributes to greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions particularly methane (CH4) emissions thereby influencing climate change. To address this issue further, it is crucial to establish strategies that simultaneously increase ruminant productivity while minimizing GHG emissions, particularly from cattle, sheep, and goats ...

Enteric methane emissions from German pigs [PDF]
, 2012 Methane emissions from enteric fermentation of pigs are object of emission reporting. Hitherto they were treated as part of the energy balance of pigs, in accordance with IPCC guidance documents. They were calculated from the gross energy intake rate and a constant methane conversion ratio. Meanwhile numerous experimental data on methane emissions from

Estimation Methodologies for Enteric Methane Emission in Ruminants
2015As enteric methane emissions from ruminants contribute to feed inefficiency and global warming, methodologies to measure the enteric methane from either the individual ruminant or the herd are needed. Therefore, methane emission estimations in ruminants may provide insight into potential methane mitigation strategies.
