  1. Enteric methane emissions mitigation in U.S. beef production: industry adoption, public perception, and potential market impacts

    Chapter 1 Cattle are ruminant livestock that emit enteric methane (CH₄) as part of their natural digestive process. The U.S. beef cattle industry is receiving pressure to reduce greenhouse gases emissions, including methane. The U.S. Roundtable for Sustainable Beef has set a target for the U.S. …

    … of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, including enteric methane from ruminating cattle, carbon dioxide (CO2), and nitrous oxide (N2O) from microbial respiration of soil carbon (C) and nitrogen (N). Producers may introduce non-bloat legumes to cattle pastures to improve soil N content, increase …

  5. Assessment of methane emission traits in Canadian Holstein cows

    Enteric methane production from ruminants represents a loss of productive energy and contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. This thesis presents a phenotypic data description and genetic parameter estimates of three methane emission traits (methane production, yield, and intensity) in Canadian …

  7. Life cycle environmental impacts of utilizing hemp seed meal as a protein source in sheep feedlot rations

    … The use of IPCC Tier 2 methods for estimating enteric methane emissions from sheep resulted in a 7.5–8.5% increase in the carbon footprint, relative to a mechanistic equation present in the Ruminant Nutrition System model. Physical allocation resulted in greater impacts of the hemp diet systems …
