Editorial: Feeding and Nutritional Strategies to Reduce Livestock Greenhouse Gas Emissions
2021
Overview
The latter is expressed either through traditional indicators such as the conversion rate and weight gain or through the carbon footprint. [...]the search for comprehensive strategies to mitigate GHG emissions from livestock systems must incorporate strategies associated with animal feed and nutrition and ultimately evaluate their effect through productive parameters. Moringa oleifera is commonly used for its protein content; however, its inclusion has also been related to a decrease in methane production. [...]the incorporation of leaves, flour, seeds, or extracts of Moringa oleifera, thanks to the natural capacity of the species to inhibit methanogenesis, has reported successful results in research carried out in buffalos (6), goats (7), beef cattle (8), and dairy cows (9). Through his Perspective article,Vijn et al.consider the use of seaweed and provides valuable recommendations for the design of research associated with the use of seaweed as an enteric methane mitigant in the stages of seaweed production, animal feed production, and livestock production.Ku-Vera et al.perform an exhaustive review on the role of secondary plant metabolites on enteric methane mitigation, explaining the possible mechanisms of action of tannins, saponins, essential oils, flavonoids on enteric CH4 mitigation. [...]Toro-Mujica, using the results of previous research about the effect of the use of additives in the production of GHG, raises the need for evaluation at the livestock system level.
