Dr Karen Beauchemin is a federal scientist in Canada and is recognised as an international authority on Green House Gas emissions from livestock farming. Karen and her colleagues have established a broad based research programme to improve feed utilisation in beef and dairy cattle while reducing methane emissions. Karen joins the podcast to discuss her research. Her team has discovered multiple methods of reducing methane emissions but the number one way is still to improve overall efficiency whether that’s through more kgs reared per cow or improved grass utilisation.
