Ruminant animals (domesticated or wild) emit methane (CH4) through enteric fermentation in their digestive tract and from decomposition of manure during storage. These processes are the major sources greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions animal production systems. Techniques for measuring CH4 vary direct measurements (respiration chambers, which highly accurate, but with limited applicability) to various indirect methods (sniffers, laser technology, practical, variable accuracy). The sulfur...
