Manure management might help decrease GHG gas from animal agriculture.


In 2012, around 10% of the total slurry volume in Denmark was acidified to a pH around 6 by one of several technologies. Acidification by sulphuric acid reduce CH4 emissions from cattle slurry by 67-87% (Petersen et al., 2012), and from pig slurry by 94-99%, (Petersen; unpublished results) during 3-month storage periods
