Balanced diets, breed management can cut emissions in dairy sector: Report - Business Standard

Quick Summary:

The report, titled "India's Dairy Future: Aligning Livelihoods, Growth, and Climate Solutions", says the doubling of the female bovine population in India -- from 122.7 million in 1972 to 246.7 million in 2019 -- has led to a corresponding doubling of greenhouse gas emissions from dairy animals.

Balanced diet, effective breed and manure management and precision dairy farming technologies could improve dairy productivity in India and reduce planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions from the sector, according to a new report.

India's livestock sector is projected to account for 15.7 per cent of global enteric methane emissions by 2050, it said.
