Methane emissions from two breeds of beef cows offered diets containing barley straw with either grass silage or brewers’ grains

Increasing the concentration of dietary lipid is a promising strategy for reducing methane (CH4) emissions from ruminants. This study investigated the effect of replacing grass silage with brewers’ grains on CH4 emissions of pregnant, non-lactating beef cows of two breeds. The experiment was a two×t...
