Methane and carbon dioxide emissions in cattle derived from GreenFeed Emission Monitoring systems

Alternative title(s)

Methane and CO2 production in cattle derived from GEM machines

Abstract

Measurement of methane and carbon dioxide production in Angus cattle on ad-lib feeding, measured in the field and yards. Field measurements were done on bulls and cows. Yard measurements taken on heifers is complimented with feed intake measurements. Measurements were taken using portable GreenFeed machines and feed intake measured using automatic feed recorders. Yard measurements were used to establish measurement protocols for data quality using GreenFeed machines.

Lineage

GEM data is sourced from the C-Lock Inc company which distributes /sells the GEM machines. The company have developed a within house algorithium to produce the data (it is important that those sourcing and using the data understand data filtering systems applied to data released from C-Lock Inc, otherwise one may not be comparing apples with apples). Data derived from the K heifers which also included feed intake provided enough data to develop optimal test protocols (published in journal of anim sci.) to ensure GEM data collected in-situ provided valid results of emissions produced by cattle. These recommendations (protocols) should be observed when using GEM data irrespective of source.
