TL;DR: In this article, the economic potential of agricultural practices, such as water and rice management, set-aside, land use change and agroforestry, livestock management and manure management, is estimated.

TL;DR: In this paper, a variety of nutritional management strategies that reduce enteric methane (CH4) production are discussed, such as increasing the level of grain in the diet, inclusion of lipids and supplementation with ionophores (>24ppm) are most likely to be implemented by farmers.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explore the constraints and barriers to implementation important for GHG mitigation in agriculture and also examine how climate and non-climate policy in different regions of the world has affected agricultural GHG emissions and how it may affect emissions and mitigation implementation in the future.

TL;DR: Property of feed that place constraints on microbial attachment and biofilm formation can have a profound effect on both the rate and extent of feed digestion in the rumen, and developments in feed processing, plant breeding, and genetic engineering that overcome these constraints could substantially benefit ruminant production.

TL;DR: Results from in vitro batch culture studies provide evidence that EO and their components have the potential to improve N and/or energy utilization in ruminants and identification of EO that favorably alter fermentation without resulting in broad overall inhibition of rumen fermentation, continues to be a major challenge for researchers.
