Objectives of the Course |
With this lesson, it is stated in sci and other studies conducted in recent years that methane gas emitted by farm animals is responsible for 17-28% of global warming. In this context, the effects of farm animals on global warming and the determination of their effects will be shared. Evaluations will be made about the strategies to be implemented to reduce methane gas emitted by farm animals and animal feeding methods. |
