Mitigating methane emissions and promoting acetogenesis in ruminant livestock
Through enteric fermentation, ruminants convert fibrous biomass into high-quality proteins like meat and milk. In this process however, methanogenic archaea in the ruminant gastrointestinal tract produce methane, a potent greenhouse gas, from the by-products of enteric fermentation: carbon dioxide a...
