In light of @RTE 's airing of 'What Planet Are You On', we are disappointed with the misleading messages in the show and unfair portrayal of the Irish Meat and Dairy Industry. Our full response can be read below #WPAYO

@365Ifarm @nookost Yea exactly, younger cows still need to divert energy away from production towards growth. Also on a system basis, increasing the age structure of the herd through better fertility will lead to lower emissions associated with rearing extra herd replacements.

@nookost @bl888 I'd say your right, 3rd lac cows produce more for sure.

Ninth week of methane recording. Forty eight cows in the herd are regularly using the greenfeeds. Initial results show older cows (3rd parity+) are emitting less methane/kg milk solids compared to 1st and 2nd parity cows. Meaning increasing the age of herd can increase efficiency

Over the next few years research with @VistaMilk be looking at understanding the animal, genetic and nutritional factors associated with methane emissions in grazing dairy cows. Various feed additives will also be tested to see their effect on methane emissions.

Hard bate that
