The objective of the present DEMO project entitled "BEEFMETALIST - Estimating tool for enteric methane emissions from fattening calves" is to provide the beef cattle sector with a practical tool to estimate methane emissions from 'ruminal origin of fattening calves in our production system through the use of methane meters installed on a commercial farm and a "calculator" application.
The impact of the provision of these tools is the ability to have more data and knowledge about the enteric emissions of methane in fattening calves to be able to implement nutritional or management strategies that reduce these emissions, while gaining competitiveness against 'a potential environmental fee.
Activity financed through Operation 01.02.01 of Technology Transfer of the Rural Development Program of Catalonia 2014-2022.
