Can greenhouse gases in breath be used to genetically improve feed efficiency of dairy cows?

Journal of dairy science - 1 Mar 2020

Abstract excerpt

There is considerable interest in improving feed utilization of dairy cattle while limiting losses to the environment (i.e., greenhouse gases, GHG). To breed for feed-efficient or climate-friendly cattle, it is first necessary to obtain accurate estimates of genetic parameters and correlations of feed intake, greenhouse gases, and production traits. Reducing dry matter take (DMI) requirements while maintaining...
