There is no one silver bullet in terms of dietary interventions to reduce methane emissions. To reach 2050 climate goals, a combination of multiple strategies will be required, says Dutch animal nutrition expert, Jan Dijkstra.
Existing strategies, diligently applied, could mitigate livestock methane emissions enough to help the sector limit its share of global warming to the 1.5°C target by 2030, finds a recently published review.
A grass biorefinery project run over two years in Ireland has just published its final results, with several co-products produced showing great promise for dairy and pig diets.
Researchers based at Aarhus University in Foulum, Denmark are optimistic they can partially replace traditional protein ingredients like soy with clover grass in organic pig feed.
