Livestock Management
Every dairy farm has the opportunity to contribute to reaching net zero by adopting further best management practices (BMPs) to reduce emissions and increase carbon sequestration in a voluntary way. This page highlights livestock management practices in the BMP guide.
Building greater sustainability in Livestock Management
Improvements in cow health and comfort, enhanced diets and genetics, and advances in technology, means fewer cows are needed to produce the same amount of milk. Fewer cows generally means fewer GHG emissions. Optimizing dairy health, genetics and diet can further reduce methane emission and lower production costs.
