ManagementAbstract

Influence of permanent use of feeding stalls as living area on ammonia and greenhouse gas emissions for group-housed gestating sows kept on straw deep-litter

Keeping group-housed gestating sows on partly straw bedded floor with permanent access to the concrete feeding stalls compared to fully straw bedded floor did not significantly influence animal performance and NH3-emissions, and decreased CO2eq-emissions.

NutritionAbstract

Protease and xylanase on growth performance, nutrient digestibility, and manure odour

Xylanase reduce gaseous emissions and can moderate the odorous impact of pig manure.

European Union: new report from Expert Panel on Nitrogen and Food

A new report from the Expert Panel on Nitrogen and Food, of the Task Force on Reactive Nitrogen, quantifies for the first time how much our food choices affect pollutant nitrogen emissions, climate change and land-use across Europe.

FAO: agriculture's greenhouse gas emissions on the rise

New FAO estimates of greenhouse gas data show that emissions from agriculture, forestry and fisheries have nearly doubled over the past fifty years.

FAO: major cuts of greenhouse gas emissions from livestock within reach

Wider use of already-existing best practices and technologies could significantly help sector reduce outputs of global warming gases.

NutritionAbstract

Effects of fermented grains as raw cereal substitutes in growing pigs

Fermented grains reduce faecal noxious gas emission of growing pigs but has variable effects on growth performance and nutrient digestibility.

The impact of reducing straw supply on ammonia, GHG and odours emissions by fattening pigs raised on deep‐litter

The aim of this study was to determine the impact of a 33% reduction in straw used for bedding on ammonia, GHG and odour emissions.

Australia's first carbon farming piggery

The CFI project uses the Destruction of Methane Generated from Manure in Piggeries methodology determination, developed in collaboration with the Australian Government.

Fewer, better fed, farm animals: Good for the world’s climate and the world’s poor

Herrero, an agricultural systems analyst at ILRI, gave an up-to-date overview of ways the livestock sector in developing countries can help mitigate greenhouse gas emissions, which are causing global warming.

European Union: new Commission proposal to minimise the climate impacts of biofuel production

The use of food-based biofuels to meet the 10% renewable energy target of the Renewable Energy Directive will be limited to 5%.

Australia: national livestock methane program

Research is also being undertaken to develop technologies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from animal waste.

Effect of litter type and feeding system on ammonia and greenhouse gas emissions in growing pigs

The effects of two types of litter (straw and sawdust) and two feeding systems (dry and liquid) on nitrogenous (NH3, N2O and N2) and carbon emissions (CH4 and CO2) were determined in growing pigs.

Annual European Union greenhouse gas inventory 1990/2010 and inventory report 2012

GHG emissions from the agricultural sector contributed nearly 10 per cent of total emissions in the EU-27 in 2010.

The impact of pork production on Green House Gas (GHG) emissions

Provisional estimates from FAO indicate that pork production contributes about 793 million tonnes CO2 equivalent which represents approximately 1.6% of global GHG emissions.

Dietary PC content of barley grain based, but not by corn based, diets affects methane produced by finisher pigs

The objective was to study effects of decreasing CP concentration on CH4 production, C retention efficiency and performance by finisher pigs.

Australia: Methane emissions stand to boost farmers' income

The Australian Government today launched the first methodology to be approved under the Carbon Farming Initiative, which will provide pig farmers with the opportunity to earn carbon credits for reducing methane emissions from manure.
