Recent IPCC reports have highlighted the environmental impact of livestock production
as a major source of non-CO2 emissions: methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O) and ammonia
(NH3). The livestock sector must react to these reports and develop or implement methods
that can reduce greenhouse (GHG) emissions from livestock production. Reducing greenhouse
gas emissions from livestock production provides authoritative reviews on measuring
GHG emissions from livestock as well as the range of methods that can be applied to
reduce emissions, ranging from breeding to animal health and manure management. The
collection also reviews nutritional approaches such as improving forage quality and
the use of plant bioactive compounds and other feed supplements to limit emissions
by modifying the rumen environment. Drawing in an international range of expert authors,
Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from livestock production summarises what we can
do to make livestock production more sustainable and viable for the future. It will
be a major reference for the livestock (particularly dairy) science research community,
environmental scientists, government and other agencies tackling the challenge of
climate change, as well as companies involved in livestock production and processing
of dairy and meat products
