Improved feeding and forages at a crossroads: Farming systems approaches for sustainable livestock development in East Africa by Paul, Birthe K., Groot, Jeroen C.J., Maass, Brigitte L., Notenbaert, An Mo, Herrero, Mario, Tittonell, Pablo Adrian

“…Ruminant livestock production is also associated with negative environmental impacts, including greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, air pollution, high water consumption, land-use change, and loss of biodiversity. Improved livestock feeding and forages have been highlighted as key entry point to sustainable intensification, increasing food security, and decreasing environmental trade-offs including GHG emission intensities. …”
