We collaborate with 6 European partners in CARE4DAIRY project to produce best practice guides for dairy calves, heifers & cows. Videos, podcasts & infographics accompany the guides to encourage adoption of welfare-friendly practices on farms. Materials are available at: care4dairy.eu/about-care4d...

✅ Inhibiting #methane production seems not to improve the energy balance of #ruminants

✅ Knowledge gaps in energy transactions and microbial mechanisms were identified

✅ Improved animal production is not a co-benefit of decreased methanogenesis
