Analysis of Sources and Trends in Agricultural GHG Emissions from Annex I Countries
The vast majority of the scientific community believe that anthropogenic greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are the predominant cause of climate change. One of the GHG emission sources is agriculture. Following the International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)

Methane Emissions from Livestock Operations: Sources, Sinks, and Mitigation Strategies
Livestock operations significantly contribute to global methane (CH4) emissions, a potent greenhouse gas. This occurs primarily through enteric fermentation (a digestive process in ruminant animals that produce methane) and manure management. This review

MANURE MANAGEMENT FOR WATER QUALITY COSTS TO ANIMAL FEEDING OPERATIONS OF APPLYING MANURE NUTRIENTS TO LAND [PDF]
Nutrients from livestock and poultry manure are key sources of water pollution. Ever-growing numbers of animals per farm and per acre have increased the risk of water pollution. New Clean Water Act regulations compel the largest confined animal producers

The Economics of Manure Utilization: Model and Application [PDF]
A model of manure utilization is developed and applied to four types of transportable manure. Model results highlight important response differences among manure types and generally illustrate the diseconomies of manure production. For example, as manure
