Effect of nitrogen-reduced diet on NH3 and N2O emissions of dairy cows The NH3 and N2O emissions from two parallel pasture-based feeding systems with dairy cattle were measured. In one system cows were fed exclusively on pasture grass, in the other system 25% maize...

Sources of nitrous oxide from intensively managed pasture soils High N-inputs render pasture soils prone for N2O emissions produced via multiple microbial pathways. Their contribution to N2O production remains however unknown at various scales leading to uncertainty...

Integrated Nitrogen Balance in Livestock Sector The livestock sector in Latvia is one of key sources of reactive nitrogen emissions, by nitrogen leaching to hydrosphere, ammonia and nitrous oxide emissions to atmosphere. The aim of this study is to develop the...

An integrated approach to nutrient management on dairy farms We describe a novel experimental approach to assess the integrated effects of a suite of innovative measures for improving nutrient efficiency of dairy farms. The approach uses four semi-virtual farmlets,...

Influence of soil properties on N2O emissions Observations on nitrous oxide (N2O) from urine and dung patches deposited by grazing cattle in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) are scarce. Moreover, the effects of soil properties (e.g. pH or texture) on N2O emissions from...
