Abstract

Globally, the single most important source of greenhouse gas emissions from grazing systems is enteric methane (CH4) arising as a by-product of the fermentation of feed in the reticulo-rumen of ruminants (Clark et al., 2005). Methane is implicated in global warming and in countries where livestock constitutes a major emission source such as New Zealand, international commitments are driving research to develop emission reduction technologies, for which accurate measurements of CH4 emissions are ...Continued
