Carbon footprint of milk produced in Indonesian smallholder dairy farms: greenhouse gas emissions associated with different manure management systems

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingAbstract

Abstract

We assessed four different MMSs in this study and found that MMS has important impacts on GHGE. Although the practice of discharging manure results in the lowest GHGE of the four MMSs assessed in this study, the nutrient losses of this system are high. The yield of biogas was not used optimally,leading to additional methane losses. To draw conclusions, environmental impact assessment related to manure management systems in smallholder dairy farms should also consider other environmental impacts.
