The possibility of greenhouse gas emissions reduction from the dairy cattle farms

Abstract

Dairy cattle have a significant share in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Therefore, due to the growing demand for milk and milk products, it is worth looking for solutions to effectively reduce the environmental impact of dairy farming. The article reviews the literature on the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from dairy farms through dietary interventions. Significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from dairy farms can be achieved by optimizing dairy cattle and the use of various feed additives. Silvo-pastoralism systems are also important for their ecosystem services, including climate change mitigation.
