Effect of altering ruminal pH by dietary buffer supplementation on methane emissions from sheep fed forage rape
Low methane (CH4) emissions from sheep fed forage rape (Brassica napus) might be related to low ruminal pH value. In this study, sodium carbonate (Na2CO3: SC) was supplemented to the diet to alter ruminal pH for evaluation of its role in CH4 emissions from sheep fed forage rape. Fourteen intact and...
