Effect of solid and slatted floors and temperature on ammonia and GHG emissions in a scale model of dairy cattle houses
Dairy cattle are usually housed in naturally ventilated dairy houses, in witch the presence of urine and faeces, during a few hours or some days, lead to gaseous emissions. The aim of this study was to evaluate, at a scale model, the effect of a solid and a slatted floor at different air temperature...

Summary: | Dairy cattle are usually housed in naturally ventilated dairy houses, in witch the presence of urine and faeces, during a few hours or some days, lead to gaseous emissions. The aim of this study was to evaluate, at a scale model, the effect of a solid and a slatted floor at different air temperatures on NH3 and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions (N2O, CO2 and CH4). |
