Symposium review: Understanding the role of the rumen microbiome in enteric methane mitigation and productivity in dairy cows

ABSTRACT: Ruminants are one of the largest sources of global CH4 emissions. This enteric CH4 is exclusively produced by methanogenic archaea as a natural product during microbial fermentation in the reticulorumen.
