Livestock researchers from seven ASEAN countries and Uganda met in Phnom Penh last week to consolidate the best available information on measurement of livestock greenhouse gases (GHG).

The event, hosted by Cambodia’s RUA (Royal University of Agriculture) and facilitated by SEARCA (Southeast Asian Regional Center for Graduate Study and Research in Agriculture), was the culmination of recent investment in livestock GHG measurement by New Zealand in many of these countries.

The Cambodian workshop distilled the experiences and expertise of participants, to be used as reference by current and future users. Outputs included national summaries of equipment available in their countries, best practice guides on use of these systems, and training videos on the key component and procedures.

Through its Climate Smart Agriculture Initiative, New Zealand has sought to strengthen national GHG inventories for livestock as well as pioneer GHG measurement and mitigation options in 6 ASEAN countries. This includes setting up new livestock methane measurement facilities.
