Who said you can't have the best of both worlds? Using genetics farmers can reduce GHG emissions per kg of lamb produced and increase farm profitability. #winwin @GrassToGas agriland.ie/farming-news/h… #agriland

A recently published study carried out by @edeloconner15 in the TeagascSheep team and funded by @GrassToGas and GreenBreed confirms an optimal time of 50 min to measure gaseous emissions of sheep in portable accumulation chambers. dx.doi.org/10.1093/jas/sk… Sheep Ireland 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

After 1 year delay, British Texel Sheep cross lambs now on site SRUC and being recorded for individual feed intake. CT and ultrasound scanning this week, and after 6 weeks on trial, to assess body composition changes & rumen volumes. Which lambs will be most efficient?

These ewes’ emissions are also measured in Portable Accumulation Chambers at TeagascSheep for comparison with SF6. Individual daily pasture intake is estimated using the n-alkane technique. GreenBreed & @GrassToGas. Sheep Ireland 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

It was so nice to meet up with some of the Grass To Gas parters in person again at the World Congress of Genetics Applied to Livestock Production in Rotterdam this month. Some great data sets and interesting results starting to emerge.
