<p><strong>The NZAGRC&nbsp;and PGgRc&nbsp;are&nbsp;focused on development of efficient, cost effective farm solutions through the reduction of agricultural greenhouse gas emissions.</strong></p>
<p>New Zealand's research into reducing livestock greenhouse gas emissions concentrates on six possible solutions:&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<ol>
<li><strong><a href="methane.html">Reducing enteric methane</a></strong></li>
<li><strong><a href="nitrous-oxide.html">Reduce nitrous oxide and nitrate leaching</a></strong></li>
<li><a href="soil-carbon.html"><strong>Increasing soil carbon</strong></a></li>
</ol>
<p>An <a href="integrated-systems.html"><strong>integrated systems research programme</strong> </a>runs alongside the detailed research work to quantify the contribution that farmers already make through their increased efficiencies.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The NZAGRC also runs a <a href="maori.html"><strong>research stream dedicated to assist the Maori pastoral sector</strong></a> to improve its collective capacity to increase resource<br /> efficiency and farm productivity while lowering greenhouse gas emissions.</p>
