Dairy Farmers of Canada (DFC) has released a set of best practices to help dairy farms reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
The guide, titled Net Zero by 2050 Best Management Practices Guide to Mitigate Emissions on Dairy Farms, was developed in consultation with experts as part of DFC’s goal to reach net-zero GHG emissions by 2050.
It includes an overview of 30 BMP opportunities for reducing emissions, increasing carbon sequestration and improving overall environmental sustainability.
DFC is working with GHG reduction specialists, federal and provincial governments, dairy stakeholders and farmers on strategies that can be applied at the farm level.
