Variations in methane-producing intensity are mainly attributed to differences in productivity, including the nutrition and digestibility of livestock diet.

Livestock sector has a history of decreasing emissions

Science Notes: The intensity of emissions is decreasing, but regional differences remain

A new study shows that emission intensity per unit of animal protein produced has decreased globally over the past two decades due to greater production efficiency. Despite concerns about the environmental cost of livestock production, the global appetite for animal products such as meat, eggs and dairy continues to grow.  Following the recent revision of […] Read more
