Invitation to round table meeting in KSLA: Methane from ruminants – mitigation options on 15 June, at 9 am until 12.15 pm
The Royal Swedish Academy of Agriculture and Forestry would like to invite you to a roundtable meeting, on 15 June, at 9 am until 12 pm, to update each other on the methane issues focusing on ruminants. 

Methane contributes to global warming. Agriculture accounts for about 15 % of greenhouse gases and ruminants are a significant contributor. The mitigation potential of reduction in the livestock sector is large, but there are several trade-offs and costs related to it. What are the latest knowledge about ruminants with regard to different mitigation approaches, what are the options in nutrition, breeding and manure management? How can emissions from ruminants be reduced? What is technically possible and what measures are realistic and at the same time also cost-effective?
