Feeding measures to lower methane emissions

Livestock related emissions will increase as world population and food demand increases; enteric CH4 emissions are projected to grow by over 30% from 2000 to 2020. There are mitigations available now, but it is imperative to develop new improvements and ways to implement existing technologies more cost effectively.   Efficient animals require less feed than average and can be expected to produce less CH4 and N2O.   Animal agriculture is responsible for 8–10.8% of globa
