What is the real place of livestock in GHG emissions? Can we control GHG emissions by genetics, animal nutrition or early-life interventions? The World Association for Animal Production will organise an on-line session on this topic. https://eaap2023.org/programme/waap-sessions/ Please use the "Virtual Congress pass https://eaap2023.org/registration/ to get an answer to these questions.
Sure, animal nutrition is related to gas production in ruminants, more research on total gas and methane production resulting from different available feeds could be suggested as an effective manner.
Controlling greenhouse gas emissions in ruminant farming can be challenging, but there are several strategies that can help reduce emissions. Some effective ways to control greenhouse gas emissions in ruminant farming include:
Controlling greenhouse gas emissions in ruminant farming can be challenging, but there are several strategies that can help reduce emissions. Some effective ways to control greenhouse gas emissions in ruminant farming include:
Improving feed quality and digestibility: Feeding ruminants with high-quality forages and balanced diets can help reduce enteric methane emissions.
Reducing herd size: Smaller herds can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions from manure management and enteric fermentation.
Implementing manure management practices: Proper manure management can help reduce emissions of methane and nitrous oxide, such as composting or using anaerobic digesters to capture methane.
Using feed additives: Some feed additives, such as ionophores, can help reduce enteric methane emissions.
Improving animal genetics: Selecting animals with lower methane emissions can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions in ruminant farming.
Overall, a combination of these strategies can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions in ruminant farming while maintaining productivity and profitability.
