Diet preference for grass and legumes in free-ranging domestic sheep and cattle: Current theory and future application (2006, background): “High feed conversion efficiencies are also associated with reduced methane emissions (DeRamus et al., 2003), so giving another potential environmental benefit of this approach i.e. reducing greenhouse gas emissions from grazing ruminant livestock.”
Special topics--Mitigation of methane and nitrous oxide emissions from animal operations: I. A review of enteric methane mitigation options. (2013, unknown): “DeRamus et al. (2003) demonstrated that management-intensive grazing offered a more efficient use of grazed forage crops and more efficient conversion of forage into meat and milk, which resulted in a 22% reduction of projected CH4 annual emissions from beef cattle.”
