Methane Emissions from Ruminant Livestock in Ethiopia: Promising Forage Species to Reduce CH<sub>4</sub> Emissions

Methane Emissions from Ruminant Livestock in Ethiopia: Promising Forage Species to Reduce CH<sub>4</sub> Emissions

This paper assesses the ability of fodder plants to reduce methane (CH<sub>4</sub>) emissions while simultaneously improving animal productivity in Ethiopia. Enteric CH<sub>4</sub> emissions from ruminants in Ethiopia increased by 12% or ≈ 6197 Gg CO<sub>2</sub>-e...
