Volume 1 Issue 1

DIETARY STRATEGIES FOR ENTERIC METHANE MITIGATION IN DAIRY COWS: EVALUATING THE EFFECTS OF NITRATE AND SEAWEED SUPPLEMENTATION ON GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS, MILK PRODUCTION Abstract Methane (CH₄) from enteric fermentation in ruminants, produced mainly by rumen methanogenic archaea using hydrogen and carbon dioxide from microbial feed fermentation, is a potent greenhouse gas with a global warming…

CLIMATE-SMART LIVESTOCK SYSTEMS FOR SUSTAINABLE FOOD PRODUCTION

Volume 1 Issue 1

CLIMATE-SMART LIVESTOCK SYSTEMS FOR SUSTAINABLE FOOD PRODUCTION Abstract Climate-smart livestock systems are essential for sustainable food production and mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, and ruminants—major contributors to methane emissions—were evaluated under conventional and low-emission diets to assess effects on feed efficiency, growth performance, and enteric methane production, with parameters including weight gain, feed intake, feed conversion…
