Slurry Acidification
Slurry acidification reduces fertiliser demand and cuts emissions by up to 5% during storage and spreading.
Slurry Treatment
Treating slurry with hydrogen peroxide cuts emissions by up to 4% and reduce methane by up to 80% during storage.
Slurry Cover
Covering slurry stores cuts emissions by up to 5% and saves €3,600 over 50 hectares per year by reducing synthetic fertiliser use.
Extending Grazing Season
Extending the grazing season cuts emissions by up to 2.7% and boosts milk revenue by nearly €3,000 per farm.
Antimethanogenic Feed Additives
Antimethanogenic feed additives cut methane emissions by up to 28% and cost €6975 per 93 cows annually.
Grass Biorefinery
Grass biorefineries replace soy protein, save €3,000 in feed costs, and cut emissions by 8.9%.
Anaerobic Digestion
Sending slurry to anaerobic digestion can cut emissions by up to 9.4% and generate up to 400 MWh of energy per year.
Multispecies Swards
Switching to multispecies swards cuts emissions by up to 8.8% and saves €4,400 in fertiliser across 50 hectares.
Red Clover Silage
Using red clover silage cuts emissions by up to 8.2% and saves €2,000 in fertiliser across 20 hectares.
White Clover Silage
Incorporating white clover silage cuts emissions by up to 7.8% and saves €4,500 in fertiliser costs over 50 hectares.
Low Emission Slurry Spreading
Low-emission slurry spreading cuts ammonia by 60% and saves €45/h in fertiliser costs.
Genetic Selection
Genetic selection for high-EBI cows cuts emissions by up to 6.3% and boosts gains by €7,800 per 100 cows.
