The development and validation of management practices to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from livestock require accurate emission measurements. This study assessed the accuracy of a practical inverse dispersion modelling (IDM) technique to q

Context In extensive northern grazing systems, supplementation of P is recommended to maximise cattle growth rates and reproduction. Improving the absorption of P for the animal by influencing metabolic pathways has the potential to improve both the

Methane (CH4) emissions associated with beef production systems in northern Australia are yet to be quantified. Methodologies are available to measure emissions, but application in extensive grazing environments is challenging. A micrometeorological

The growing global demand for food of animal origin will be the incentive for countries such as Australia and Brazil to increase their beef production and international exports. This increased supply of beef is expected to occur primarily through on-

Several technologies have been tested to reduce enteric methanogenesis, but very few have been successfully used in practical conditions for livestock. Furthermore, the consequences of reduced rumen methane production on animal performance and milk q

This study determined the extent to which bovine longissimus lumborum muscle (LLM) myofibers are influenced by nutrition for 120 d from weaning and the time-course of recovery after severe postweaning nutritional restriction. After weaning, 3 groups

Belmont red and Brahman cows (n = 50) were allocated to one of two groups to determine if β-carotene supplementation could reduce the incidence of mastitis and consequently improve calf productivity from birth to weaning. Both groups received a mola

Enteric fermentation has been estimated to be responsible for 64.2 Mt CO2-e, or ~16% of Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions (Australian Greenhouse Office 2007). A bromochloromethane (BCM) formulation, previously shown to inhibit methanogenesis, wa

The effects of post-weaning nutrient restriction on growth, carcass characteristics and beef quality were determined. Belmont Red weaner steers (n = 100) were allocated to an initial slaughter group and 3 treatment groups of 120 days duration: rapid
