Prediction of voluntary intake and enteric methane emission by dairy heifers in integrated systems
Abstract
To compare the predictions of voluntary intake and enteric methane (CH4) emissions in integrated crop-livestock (ICL) and integrated crop-livestock-forestry (ICLF) systems, a 2 × 2 crossover trial was carried out with eight Girolando heifers divided into two groups according to their live weight (LW) and age. The daily means of total dry matter intake (9.66 and 8.44 kg day-1) and total enteric CH4 emission (9.99 and 8.79 MJ day-1; and 186.68 and 164.30 g day-1) were similar between ICL and ICLF, respectively. The CH4 emission expressed per unit of crude protein intake (CPI) was lower (P<0.001) in the ICLF (8.40 MJ kg CPI-1; 157.00 g kg CPI-1) than in the ICL (10.94 MJ kg CPI-1; 204.37 g kg CPI-1), but per intake unit of total digestible nutrient (TDNI) or non-fiber carbohydrate (NFCI) CH4 emission was higher (P<0.001) in the ICLF system. Significant correlations between forage digestibility and nutrient composition with CH4 emissions per unit of nutrient intake were observed. In conclusion, the daily means of total intake and total enteric methane emissions per heifer did not differ between the ICL and ICLF systems; however, the CH4 emission per nutrient intake depended on the digestibility and nutrient composition of the pasture.References
