A new approach for improving emission factors for enteric methane emissions of cattle in smallholder systems of East Africa – Results for Nyando, Western Kenya
In Africa, the agricultural sector is the largest sector of the domestic economy, and livestock, are a crucial component of agriculture, accounting for ~ 45% of the Kenyan agricultural GDP and > 70% of African agricultural greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Accurate estimates of GHG emissions from live...
