USE OF ON-FARM METHANE INTENSITY QUANTIFICATION AND FORAGE RELATED MITIGATION OPTIONS

ml 103

Methane as a by-product of the ruminal fermentation is one of the most important global greenhouse gases. The quantification of on-farm methane intensity is necessary to monitor reduction strategies. One strategy can be the improvement of forage quality with the use of silage inoculants (BONSILAGE) together with the optimization of ruminal fermentation with the use of MAXFIBER.
