(Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Facultad de Ingeniería Geológica, Minera, Metalúrgica y Geográfica, 2016)
Enteric methane emissions by lactating and dry cows in the high Andes of Peru
(Springer NetherlandsNL, 2022-03-26)
The objective of the study was to determine enteric methane emissions using the sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) technique and comparing with The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) methodology in lactating cows (LC) ...
Phenotypic association among performance, feed efficiency and methane emission traits in Nellore cattle
(2021-10-01)
Enteric methane (CH4) emissions are a natural process in ruminants and can result in up to 12% of energy losses. Hence, decreasing enteric CH4 production constitutes an important step towards improving the feed efficiency ...
Symposium review: Uncertainties in enteric methane inventories, measurement techniques, and prediction models
(2018)
Ruminant production systems are important contributors to anthropogenic methane (CH4) emissions, but there are large uncertainties in national and global livestock CH4 inventories. Sources of uncertainty in enteric CH4 ...
Effects of pregrazing herbage mass in late spring on enteric methane emissions, dry matter intake, and milk production of dairy cows
(2016)
Few studies have examined the effects of fresh forage quality on enteric methane (CH4) emissions of dairy cows under grazing conditions. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the effects of 2 contrasting forage ...
Enteric methane mitigation strategies for ruminant livestock systems in the Latin America and Caribbean region: A meta-analysis
(Journal of Cleaner Production, 2022)
Effect of pasture management on enteric methane emissions from goats
(2021-12-01)
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 ...
Methane emission factors for beef cows in Argentina: effect of diet quality
(Royal Society of New Zealand, 2019-05)
To determine the methane (CH4) emission factors for beef cows in Argentina, we carried out two experiments to test the effect of different diets on methane emission from grazing conditions. In experiment 1, diet consisted ...
Predicting enteric methane production from cattle in the tropics
(2020-01-01)
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 ...
