Tannins from the quebracho tree can control the production of compounds that cause manure odors, according to studies by U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) scientists.
Multiphase feeding on performance, body composition, nutrient excretion and feed costs in pigs
Daily multiphase feeding may be a useful tool to reduce nutrient excretion in manure in growing-finishing pigs.
European Union: new report from Expert Panel on Nitrogen and Food
A new report from the Expert Panel on Nitrogen and Food, of the Task Force on Reactive Nitrogen, quantifies for the first time how much our food choices affect pollutant nitrogen emissions, climate change and land-use across Europe.
The impact of reducing straw supply on ammonia, GHG and odours emissions by fattening pigs raised on deep‐litter
The aim of this study was to determine the impact of a 33% reduction in straw used for bedding on ammonia, GHG and odour emissions.
France adds 823 municipalities to the areas vulnerable to nitrates
1,440 new municipalities have been added to the list of affected municipalities, although 617 have been able to leave that list thanks to the actions carried out.

Benzoic acid is more effective than sodium-benzoate in piglet’s performance and metabolism.
Effect of litter type and feeding system on ammonia and greenhouse gas emissions in growing pigs
The effects of two types of litter (straw and sawdust) and two feeding systems (dry and liquid) on nitrogenous (NH3, N2O and N2) and carbon emissions (CH4 and CO2) were determined in growing pigs.

Effect of biofuel co-products in pig diets on the excretory patterns of N and C and on the subsequent ammonia and methane emissions from pig effluent
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of incorporation into pig diets of 20% of different co-products from the biofuel industries on animal growth performance, on N and carbon C excretions, and on the subsequent ammonia volatilisation and methane production during the storage of slurry.
Reduction of greenhouse gas emission from swine manure by using a low-protein diet with synthetic amino acids
Under ad libitum feeding, a low crude protein amino acid supplemented diet can reduce N excretion in manure with no impact on animal growth.
