2 GHGs emissions from Brazilian Livestock
3 GHG emissions from enteric fermentation Source: FAO, 2006
4 Greenhouse Gases Emissions and Brazilian Livestock Source: Thorpe, A. Climatic Change (2009) 93:
5 GHG Emissions from Livestock in Brazil Cattle Enteric Fermentation 68% of CH4 emissions (1994) Other Animals Enteric Fermentation 3% Cattle Enteric Fermentation 68% Source: Brazilian Ministry of Science and Tecnology (2004)
6 GHG Emissions from Livestock in Brazil Beef Cattle 82% of enteric fermetation emissions in Brazil (1994) Cattle about 18% of the country emissions (current estimates) 14% 1% 1% 1% 1% 82% Beef Gado Cattle de Corte Dairy Gado Cattle de Leite Buffalo Bufalos Sheep Ovinos Caprinos Goats Others outros Source: Brazilian Ministry of Science and Tecnology (2004)
7 Brazilian Livestock Production Systems
8 Beef production in Brazil Brachiaria x Nelore structure, economics and environment Low Input System Brachiaria brizantha Brachiaria Tolerant to low fertility soils and also responsive to soil fertility Easy to seed and persistent Tolerant to bad pasture management Highly productive Low to average quality feed Nellore (zebu) Lower maintenance requirements Higher intake of low quality feed Higher tolerance to low protein diets Higher tolerance to heat
9 Feed Supplementation and Feedlots Feed supplementation on pasture and feedlots are carried out in the dry season Feedlots are not covered and only for finishing for days (usually only males) Large use of agricultural byproducts (cottonseed, citrus pulp, maize and soybean residues, sugacane yeast, etc.) Sugarcane and maize silage used as fiber source
10 Crop-livestock Systems Pasture after rice in the low fertility lands Pasture after soybeans or intercroped with maize in more fertile land and large scale farms Need large investments High management demand
11 Silvopasture Systems Decrease heat stress Improved carbon balance Allow use of high declivity areas Usually Eucaliptus or pinus but oil producing palms (Dendê and Macaúba), Mohogany and other high value woods are being studied High wood and coal demand with increasing control of deforestation High management demand in the first years
12 Enteric Methane Emissions
13 Experimental Control Physical system conditions Enteric Methane Production Techniques In vitro methods Respirometry Chambers Tunnel Systems Feeding hood system SF6 tracer gas Micro meteorological methods
14 Respirometry Chambers
15 SF6 Technique
16 SF6 Technique
17 In vitro Methods In Vitro Method Gases Microbial Mass Indigestible Feed Volatile Fatty Acids
18 Main Reseach Streams Respirometry Chambers Evaluation of methane production of reference feeds Reference calibration of SF6 and In Vitro methods In Vitro Evaluation methane production by new forage species and cultivars (pre-release) Screening of new materials for genetic improvement SF6 Methane emissions of grazing animals Evaluation of methane emission of diets (particularly grass + supplements)
19 Reseach Priorities Define emission factors for tropical grasses and supplemented diets Identify low CH4 production tropical genotypes Parameterize rumen models with tropical forages
20 GHG Emissions from Cattle Waste
21 Emissions from Cattle Waste
22 Reseach Priorities Improve emission factors and model parameters for tropical pastures
23 Soil Carbon Dynamics
24 Pasture and Soil Carbon Dynamics Pasture degradation Pasture recovery (reclaim)
25 Pasture reclaiming with a Crop Livestock System (Maracaju, MS) Salton, 2005
26 Modelling Soil Carbon Dynamics Source: Cerri et al. (2003)
27 Main Reseach Streams Total C dynamics Chronosequence studies (Native vegetation -> aging pastures) Long-term experiments Micrometeorological methods (Fluxes) SOM fractioning and humic substances Laser method Modelling SOM dynamics Maily using Century Do not allow feedback in simulating pasture degradation
28 Reseach Priorities Increase the number of studies on Soil Organic Matter dynamics, particularly on pasture reclaiming and croplivestock systems in different conditions. Methods for monitoring C quantity and quality in the soil in short time period (verification of change in carbon stocks) Modifying current soil organic matter dynamics models in order to simulate CO 2 flows in pasture degradation and reclaiming processes using measurable state variables (maybe re-parameterization of the current SOM dynamics models)
