Application of the laser methane detector for measurements in freely grazing goats: impact on animals' behaviour and methane emissions
The laser methane detector (LMD) has been increasingly used in the last decade to assess the methane (CH4) concentration in the exhaled air of ruminants. The CH4 concentration was mostly measured indoors, where animals were either retained in a feed fence or manually by a person to facilitate the LM...
