Bioprospecting essential oils of exotic species as potential mitigations of ruminant enteric methanogenesis

The inclusion of essential oils (EOs) in the diet of ruminants is one of the strategies used to alter ruminal microbial fermentation, improving feed efficiency, while simultaneously reducing enteric methane (CH4) production. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of three new EOs from plants exoti...
