This report by the Climate Policy Initiative/PUC-Rio analyzes the strategic role of the Brazilian livestock sector in climate change mitigation, focusing on reducing methane emissions from enteric fermentation. It proposes a portfolio of solutions across land use, biological productivity, nutrition, and system management to align productivity gains with environmental sustainability.

This report by the Climate Policy Initiative/Pontifical Catholic University of Rio de Janeiro (CPI/PUC-Rio) analyzes the role of Brazilian cattle ranching in climate change, specifically focusing on methane emissions from enteric fermentation. It proposes a portfolio of solutions across land use, biological productivity, feed management, and production systems to increase productivity while reducing the sector's climate footprint. The document also evaluates existing public policies and provides recommendations to align agricultural growth with carbon neutrality goals.

This report by the World Resources Institute outlines technological and practice-based strategies to mitigate methane emissions from three primary agricultural sources: enteric fermentation, manure management, and rice cultivation, in alignment with the Global Methane Pledge and the Paris Agreement.
