Abstract

The dairy farmers of Cows & Opportunities managed to further reduce their greenhouse gas and ammonia (NH3) emissions in 2012 relative to the period 2009-2011. The ultimate goal for 2013 is a 30% reduction of the average greenhouse gas emission of nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) together, relative to the average Dutch dairy farm in 1990. In 2009 the autonomously achieved reduction turned out to be 27%, and this was further improved to 29% in 2011 and almost 30% in 2012.
