The effects of potential changes in United States beef production on global grazing systems and greenhouse gas emissions

The effects of potential changes in United States beef production on global grazing systems and greenhouse gas emissions

We couple a global agricultural production and trade model with a greenhouse gas model to assess leakage associated with modified beef production in the United States. The effects on emissions from agricultural production (i.e., methane and nitrous oxide emissions from livestock and crop management)...
