Özet
Ruminant animals play an important role in the food chain for evaluate cellulose and non-protein nitrogenous (NPN) compounds absorbed partially or not by other farm animals and humans. However, ruminant animals also bring some disadvantages. Methane, produced as a natural consequence of the ruminal digestion and it is a potential green house gas, is a problem, both ecologically and economically. Methane emissions from ruminant livestock are a contributor to total global anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse gases which have a global warming potential. Also methane produced by ruminants represents a loss of energy for ruminants.
