<h3>Methane, nitrous oxide and soil carbon research</h3>
<p>New Zealand's research into reducing livestock greenhouse gas emissions concentrates on breed&nbsp;low methane&nbsp;animals and&nbsp;feeds,&nbsp;reduce methane via vaccine and using an inhibitor product, reduce nitrous oxide and&nbsp;nitrate leaching on farm, and increase&nbsp;carbon sequestered in soil.</p>

<h3>How industry contributes to lowering emissions</h3>
<p>An <a href="integrated-systems.html"><strong>integrated systems research programme</strong></a> runs alongside the detailed methane, nitrous oxide and soil carbon research to quantify the contribution that farmers already make through their increased efficiencies.&nbsp;</p>
