This project investigates how different cattle breeds and diets affect feed efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions, specifically methane. It aims to understand the relationship between animal behavior, welfare, and meat quality in the context of improving feed utilization to reduce environmental impact from livestock…
Emissions of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (NO2) are considered to be major anthropogenic contributors to the greenhouse effect, much of which is from livestock agriculture.
The most important sources are the enteric fermentation of ruminants and manure processing.
The Residual Feed Intake (RFI) is the difference between actual feed intake and the expected feed requirements for maintenance.
The RFI is moderately heritable so that genetic lines can be selected depending on RFI.
Hence, optimisin…
