HERBAGE INTAKE, METHANE EMISSIONS AND ANIMAL PERFORMANCE OF STEERS GRAZING DWARF ELEPHANT GRASS V. DWARF ELEPHANT GRASS AND PEANUT PASTURES

Herbage intake, methane emissions and animal performance of steers grazing dwarf elephant grass v. dwarf elephant grass and peanut pastures

Management strategies for increasing ruminant legume consumption and mitigating methane emissions from tropical livestock production systems require further study.The aim of this work was to evaluate the herbage intake, animal performance and enteric methane emissions of cattle grazing dwarf elephant grass (DEG) (Pennisetum purpureum cv.BRS Kurumi)

Using Sentinel-2 and canopy height models to derive a landscape-level biomass map covering multiple vegetation types

Vegetation biomass is a globally important climate-relevant terrestrial carbon pool and also drives local hydrological systems via evapotranspiration.Vegetation biomass of individual vegetation types has been successfully estimated from active and passive remote sensing data.However, for many tasks, landscape-level biomass maps across several veget
