DIETARY SEAWEED SUPPLEMENTATION REDUCES ENTERIC METHANE EMISSIONS AND IMPROVES FEED EFFICIENCY IN TROPICAL BEEF CATTLE

DIETARY SEAWEED SUPPLEMENTATION REDUCES ENTERIC METHANE EMISSIONS AND IMPROVES FEED EFFICIENCY IN TROPICAL BEEF CATTLE Abstract Enteric methane emissions from ruminant livestock represent a major contributor to agricultural greenhouse gas outputs and global climate change. Climate-smart feeding strategies are increasingly being explored to mitigate methane emissions without compromising productivity. This study evaluated the effect of…

DIETARY STRATEGIES FOR ENTERIC METHANE MITIGATION IN DAIRY COWS: EVALUATING THE EFFECTS OF NITRATE AND SEAWEED SUPPLEMENTATION ON GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS, MILK PRODUCTION

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

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…
