Livestock and enteric methane
23/02/2023
Burping livestock are a big problem for our planet. When cows and other ruminants eat, their food ferments in their gut and produces methane, which contributes to global warming. FAO and partners are working with countries to assess their greenhouse gas emissions and develop sustainable livestock systems that benefit farmers, the economy, and the planet.
Ganadería y metano entérico
23/02/2023
Los eructos del ganado son un gran problema para nuestro planeta. Cuando las vacas y otros rumiantes comen, el alimento fermenta en sus intestinos y produce metano entérico. Este potente gas de efecto invernadero se expulsa mediante eructos.
Bétail et méthane entérique
20/02/2023
Les éructations des animaux d’élevage sont un réel problème pour la planète. Lorsque les vaches et d’autres ruminants mangent, les aliments fermentent dans leurs intestins et produisent du méthane entérique. Il s’agit d’un puissant gaz à effet de serre que les animaux expulsent en éructant.
Животноводство и кишечный метан
20/02/2023
Отрыжка у скота представляет серьезную проблему для нашей планеты. Когда коровы и другие жвачные животные едят, пища, поступая в желудок, ферментирует, что приводит к образованию метана. Этот опасный парниковый газ выводится из организма животного с отрыжкой.

Making livestock production more sustainable (2021)
21/01/2021
Livestock farming is growing to meet the rising demand. This represents and opportunity for small farmers. But it can also damage the environment. The livestock sector is responsible for 14.5% of all human-induced greenhouse gas emissions, and 30% of global methane emissions. A shift towards low-carbon livestock production is possible, but it requires decisive action by all.
