Agriculture is facing up to an increasing number of challenges, including the need to ensure
various ecosystem services and to resolve apparent conflicts between them. One of the …

A meta‐analysis was conducted to evaluate the extent to which dietary tannin level is related
to methane emissions from ruminants. Data from a total of 30 experiments comprising 171 …

Agricultural soils receiving synthetic fertilizers and organic amendments containing nitrogen
contribute a large part to anthropogenic nitrous oxide (N 2 O) emissions. As a source of …

Increasingly countries are seeking to reduce emission of greenhouse gases from the
agricultural industries, and livestock production in particular, as part of their climate change …

Ruminant production is under increased public scrutiny in terms of the importance of cattle
and other ruminants as major producers of the greenhouse gas methane. Methanogenesis …

Methane emissions from ruminant livestock are a contributor to total global anthropogenic
emissions of greenhouse gases. We review the most promising dietary and farm system …

Maximizing the flow of metabolic hydrogen ([H]) in the rumen away from CH4 and toward
volatile fatty acids (VFA) would increase the efficiency of ruminant production and decrease …

The effects of yeast supplementation on intake, production, and rumen fermentation
characteristics have been widely studied, but results are inconsistent between different …

Inbreeding, by virtue of its consequence on traits of interest, is a topic of major interest for
geneticists and animal breeders. Based on meta‐analysis conducted on 57 studies and …

The methods for estimating methane emissions from cattle as used in the Australian national
inventory are based on older data that have now been superseded by a large amount of …
