3 scenarios to lower methane output

When aiming for a more environmental friendly dairy farm, it makes sense to increase longevity of the dairy herd. This was shown by calculations from the Belgium research institute ILVO. Dairy farming is an important contributor of methane gas into the environment. Methane gas (CH4) is a much stronger greenhouse gas than CO2 for example. Reducing methane ouput from agriculture is therefore high on the agenda. This can be accomplished by certain feeding strategies and feed additives. But also man
