IS WHAT HOLLYWOOD SAYING ABOUT LIVESTOCK REAL?

Here are some thoughts on which to chew your cud.

Grass sucks in CO2 through photosynthesis, cows eat the grass and burp out CH4 which turns back into CO2.

You see, it’s a natural “biogenic cycle” and one that has been around as long the estimated 100 million buffalo and other ruminants have roamed North America.

Hollywood has jumped on the anti-cattle train telling us that we must, we must, we must get rid of the cows and livestock to save the planet. But what’s really going on here and what’s really at stake/steak?

The first point I would like to make is two thirds (~3.4B Ha) of the agriculture land on the planet will NEVER GROW A CROP. This land is primarily used as pasture for grazing animals. These grazing animals are excellent a converting cellulose into milk and meat which supports billions of lives. So, if you simply say kill all the grazing animals what purpose will that land serve? Would not the domesticated animals be replaced eventually by other ruminants? Where will a large part of the world population get their essential protein from?

Now it is important to acknowledge that there is an important role that livestock plays in greenhouse gas emissions and there are many reduction strategies being adopted in North American and elsewhere. Understanding the behavior of different greenhouse gases, especially methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2), is crucial in addressing climate change.

We need to understand that YES, CH4 (Methane) is about 28 times more potent in terms of trapping heat in the atmosphere BUT we must also recognize that (according to Iowa State) it has a half life of about 10.5 years verses a half life of CO2 (carbon dioxide) of 120 to 200 years or more. Think about that. 10.5 years verses 120 years.

it is crucial to understand that the carbon-methane cycle within livestock dynamics is biogenic, forming an almost balanced loop. Cattle consume plants that absorb the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. They convert these plants into energy, and ultimately produce methane as a waste product, which, over time, oxidizes back into carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, continuing the cycle. Hence, a simplistic way to interpret this cycle is that the emissions from cattle would increase if, and only if, the overall cattle population increased.

Pragmatically, looking at this model, the only way cattle could make more greenhouse gas was IF there were more cows.

But, according to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), the number of beef cows in the United States peaked in 1975 at approximately 45.7 million head. As of 2021, the beef cow inventory is approximately 31.2 million head.

Same news in Canada with its beef herd peaking in 2005 at 14.8 million head and

now below 13 million. In dairy the US herd has declined from 18 million head in 1960 to currently below 9 million and from 1.42 million head in Canada to now below .94 million.

So, this is kinda cool…more milk with fewer cows. Looks like progress to me.

While North America’s cattle population has decreased, farmers have concurrently made substantial technological advancements and management strategies to further reduce methane emissions. Genetic selection has improved traits like growth rates and feed conversion efficiency, resulting in healthier, more productive cattle. These advancements can minimize methane output because faster-growing animals spend less time eating and thus, produce less methane.

prAGmatic: HOW SUSTAINABLE INTENSIFICATION feeds the world prAGmatic

Additionally, evolutions in feeding practices and dietary modifications can also reduce methane emissions from cattle. Some feed additives and changes to diet compositions can lessen the methane produced during digestion. For example, feed rich in easily fermentable carbohydrates can help promote propionate production in the rumen (part of the stomach), which naturally reduces methane generation. Manure management systems have also marked significant progress. Techniques like manure anaerobic digestion not only decrease methane emissions but also provide a renewable energy source—biogas. This operation encapsulates manure in a closed system where bacteria break it down in an oxygen-free environment, producing biogas made up primarily of methane, which can replace fossil fuels for heating and electricity. Therefore, the relationship between livestock and greenhouse gas emissions is considerably intricate. While livestock directly contribute to methane emissions, the reduction in cattle population, combined with improved farming practices and technologies, has helped to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions in livestock farming significantly. Nevertheless, constant and proactive efforts are required to continue these advancements and practices for reducing emissions further, ultimately contributing to the global fight against climate change. The agricultural sector—with all its complexities—plays a vital role in this collective endeavor.
