Journal ArticleDOI

Strategies for feeding the world more sustainably with organic agriculture

TL;DR: It is predicted that if food waste and meat consumption are reduced, organic agriculture could feed the world without requiring cropland expansion, and none of the corresponding strategies needs full implementation and their combined partial implementation delivers a more sustainable food future.
Journal ArticleDOI

Meta‐analysis of the relationship between dietary tannin level and methane formation in ruminants from in vivo and in vitro experiments

TL;DR: An underlying general antimethanogenic effect of tannins across tannin sources and experimental conditions is identified, thus allowing concentrating the search on sources with satisfactory palatability and low adverse effects on animal performance.
Journal ArticleDOI

A study on the causes for the elevated n−3 fatty acids in cows' milk of alpine origin

TL;DR: Changes in the ruminal ecosystem due to energy shortage or specific secondary plant metabolites are discussed as possible causes for the high 18∶3n−3 concentrations in alpine milk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impacts of feeding less food-competing feedstuffs to livestock on global food system sustainability

TL;DR: It is shown that such a strategy focusing on feed components which do not compete with direct human food consumption offers a viable complement to strategies focusing on increased efficiency in production or reduced shares of animal products in consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for the inhibition of the terminal step of ruminal α-linolenic acid biohydrogenation by condensed tannins

TL;DR: Effects of condensed tannins (CT), either via extract or plant-bound, and saponin extract on ruminal biohydrogenation of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) were investigated in vitro, with favorable results from a human health point of view.
