What we are doing to reduce New Zealand’s agricultural greenhouse gas emissions

This report from 2016 explains how farmers can reduce greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture. It highlights important gases like methane and nitrous oxide and shows that while emissions per unit of milk or meat have fallen, total emissions have increased due to higher production.

This resource trends in improving farming practices, such as better feed, animal genetics, and soil management. It also discusses emerging technologies, including breeding animals that produce less methane and using special feeds.
