Methane is a large contributor to climate change and land-grant university researchers are working to develop new feed additives for cattle to help reduce this greenhouse gas.
Clemson University scientists Matias Aguerre and Liliane Silva are collaborating with scientists from other land-grant universities – the University of Florida and Auburn University – to develop livestock feed additives to reduce the amount of methane emissions produced by grass-fed beef cattle.
Methane (CH4), more specifically enteric methane, is produced when ruminant animals including goats, sheep and cattle…
