Transdisciplinary model-based systems engineering in the development of the Ruminant Farm Systems model by Haowen Hu, Clifford A. Whitcomb, Thomas E. Ploetz, Kristan F. Reed, Kristan F. Reed

“…Regional variations influenced whole herd enteric CH4 intensity, with R2 scenarios showing the highest emissions (0.472 ± 3.65 × 10−3 kg CO2-eq/kg FPCM), followed by R1 (0.458 ± 4.19 × 10−3 kg CO2-eq/kg FPCM) and R3 (0.449 ± 3.45 × 10−3 kg CO2-eq/kg FPCM), driven by differences in dry matter intake, and milk production and composition. Manure storage methods also impacted emissions, with ADL scenarios producing 0.146 kg CO2-eq/kg FPCM lower whole farm GHG emissions than SS scenarios, due to the combined effects of reduced manure storage CH4 emissions associated with anaerobic digestion and associated increased NH3 emissions and subsequent indirect N2O emissions. …”
