متن کاملMeta-Analysis of Methane Mitigation Strategies: Improved Predictions of Mitigation Potentials and Production Implications
The aim of this study was to use meta-analysis to identify the enteric methane (CH4) mitigation strategy that reduced CH4 emission without lowering production. To this end, a database initially developed was updated, compiling data from 61 publications (233 experiments) for various observations in dairy cattle on effects of hydrogen sink (H-sink), ionophore, lipid and conc...
