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

open access: yes, 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.

Effect of pasture management on enteric methane emissions from goats

open access: yesTropical Animal Health and Production, 2021
The effect of pasture management on CH4 emissions was investigated from goats in a tropical climate. Two experiments were conducted in a "Tanzania Guinea grass" (Panicum maximum Jacq.) pasture to assess enteric CH4 production in a completely randomized design.

Mitigation of Rumen Methane Emissions with Foliage and Pods of Tropical Trees

open access: yesAnimals, 2020
Methane produced by enteric fermentation contributes to the emission of greenhouse gases (GHG) into the atmosphere. Methane is one of the GHG resulting from anthropogenic activities with the greater global warming contribution.

A mathematical model to describe the diurnal pattern of enteric methane emissions from non-lactating dairy cows post-feeding

open access: yesAnimal Nutrition, 2015
Enteric methane emission is not only a source of energy loss in ruminants, but also a potent contributor to greenhouse gas production. To identify the nature and timing of interventions to reduce methane emissions requires knowledge of temporal kinetics ...

Symposium review: Development of a funding program to support research on enteric methane mitigation from ruminants

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 2022
: Enteric methane is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions from milk production systems. Two organizations based in the United States, the Foundation for Food and Agriculture Research and the Dairy Research Institute, have developed a collaborative ...

Influence of dietary organic trace minerals on enteric methane emissions and rumen microbiota of heat-stressed dairy steers

open access: yesJournal of Animal Science and Technology, 2023
Ruminants are the main contributors to methane (CH4), a greenhouse gas emitted by livestock, which leads to global warming. In addition, animals experience heat stress (HS) when exposed to high ambient temperatures.

Quantifying sources of methane using light alkanes in the Los Angeles basin, California [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Methane (CH4), carbon dioxide (CO2), carbon monoxide (CO), and C2-C5 alkanes were measured throughout the Los Angeles (L.A.) basin in May and June 2010. We use these data to show that the emission ratios of CH4/CO and CH4/CO2 in the L.A. basin are larger

A comparison of the economic value for enteric methane emissions with other biological traits associated with dairy cows [PDF]

open access: yes
This is the first study to derive the economic value of enteric methane produced by a ruminant animal. There is considerable interest globally in selecting for low methane-emitting ruminant livestock, as methane is a potent greenhouse gas.

Strategies to Mitigate Enteric Methane Emissions in Ruminants: A Review

open access: yesSustainability, 2022
Methane is the main greenhouse gas (GHG) emitted by ruminants. Mitigation strategies are required to alleviate this negative environmental impact while maintaining productivity and ruminants’ health. To date, numerous methane mitigation strategies have been investigated, reported and suggested by scientists to the livestock industry.

Canola Meal versus Soybean Meal as Protein Supplements in the Diets of Lactating Dairy Cows Affects the Greenhouse Gas Intensity of Milk

open access: yesAnimals, 2021
Soybean meal (SBM) and canola meal (CM) are protein supplements used in lactating dairy cow diets and, recently, an enteric methane-mitigating effect (i.e., lower Ym value) was reported for CM.
