About this award

The Department of Agriculture's National Resources Conservation Service awarded a $2 million cooperative agreement to The Pennsylvania State University on September 29, 2022 to identify promising feed management practices in dairy cattle that will consistently reduce methane emission intensity and total methane emissions from dairy cattle over the long term. The goal of the Soil and Water Conservation CFDA 10.902 program is to provide conservation technical assistance to private landowners and organizations through conservation professionals to conserve soil and water resources. Under this award, Penn State will work with dairy producers to test various cattle feeding methods and measure their impact on enteric methane emissions, with the aim of uncovering practices that can sustainably limit the dairy industry's environmental footprint.
