Amelioration of methane production from livestock production systems through effective management strategies

Kennady Vijayalakshmy, Jyotsnarani Biswal and Habibar Rahman

Globally livestock has been recognized as one of the major contributors of methane emissions. Enteric fermentation by ruminant livestock viz., cattle, buffalo, sheep and goats has been the major source of methane emission. Although livestock sector is envisaged to grow further to meet increasing demand of food from animal produce, necessity of methane mitigation strategies through different management measures are also emphasised in order to reduce the climate change impacts. In the present paper possible methane mitigation measures from livestock production systems through different management strategies viz., dietary manipulation, proper selection of animal breeds, manure management and other advanced technologies have been discussed.
