Can live weight be used as a proxy for enteric methane emissions from pasture-fed sheep?
To test the hypothesis that sheep live weight (LW) could be used to improve enteric methane (CH(4)) emission calculations, mature ewes of 4 different breeds representative of the UK sheep industry were studied: Welsh Mountain, Scottish Blackface, Welsh Mule and Texel (n = 8 per breed). The ewes were...
