Effect of fibre- and starch-rich finishing diets on methanogenic Archaea diversity and activity in t (2011, background): “All rights reserved. oi:10.1016/j.anifeedsci.2011.04.060 performance, has also been shown to generally decrease CH4 production (Beauchemin et al., 2008; Eugène et al., 2008; Martin et al., 2008, 2010).”
Invited review: Enteric methane in dairy cattle production: quantifying the opportunities and impact of reducing emissions. (2014, background): “Lipid supplementation is an extensively researched enteric CH4 mitigation strategy, and several reviews are available on this topic (Giger-Reverdin et al., 2003; Beauchemin et al., 2008; Eugene et al., 2008).”
Special topics--Mitigation of methane and nitrous oxide emissions from animal operations: I. A review of enteric methane mitigation options. (2013, unknown): “Eugène et al. (2008) reported a 9% reduction in CH4 production in dairy cows due to lipid supplementation of the diet, but this was accompanied by a 6% reduction in DMI, which resulted in no difference in CH4 per unit of DMI.”
A meta-analysis of the effect of dietary fat on enteric methane production, digestibility and rumen fermentation in sheep, and a comparison of these responses between cattle and sheep (2014, background): “Few meta-analysis studies (Eugène et al., 2008; Giger-Reverdin et al., 2003; Moate et al., 2011; Patra, 2013b) investigated the response of fat or their fatty acid composition on methane emissions in cattle.”
