All the globally most important livestock species (beef and dairy cattle, pigs, broiler chicken and laying hens) are covered in the book. The mitigation methods assessed in the papers include general system changes, changes in feeding, improvement of animal health, and new technologies of manure management. The scope of the papers included in this book ranges from farm level mitigation methods to national level system changes. This book also addresses methodological development in assessing the environmental sustainability of the livestock production chains, including holistic methods, such as environmental and social life cycle assessment (LCA) and other modeling approaches. 610 $aanimal feed 610 $alivestock production systems 610 $anutrient dynamics 610 $aenvironmental sustainability 610 $aland use and land management 610 $agreenhouse gas emissions 610 $aenvironmental impact assessment 610 $amanure management 610 $alife cycle assessment 700 $aLeinonen$b Ilkka$01788272 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910346672703321 996 $aEnvironmentally Sustainable Livestock Production$94322969 997 $aUNINA
