PS11-20. Influence of Cultivar on Potential Activity of Methane Production from Annual Ryegrass.
Methane (CH4) is a potent greenhouse gas produced during ruminal fermentation, and forage characteristics are key drivers of enteric methane yield in ruminant animals. Annual ryegrass (Lolium perenne L. spp. Multiflorum [Lam.] Husnot) is commonly used in pasture-based livestock systems because of its adaptability, ra...
