Food security in developing countries: Gender and spatial interactions
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/178030

Breeding Urochloa and Megathyrsus forage grasses for low methane livestock systems
https://hdl.handle.net/10568/178038
Abstract
Ruminant livestock is the primary global source of meat and milk, efficiently transforming vegetative material into human-edible protein. Agricultural grasslands cover two-thirds of the Earth's agricultural land, dominated in the tropics by forages of the genera Urochloa and Megathyrsus supporting over 1 billion animals. Livestock plays a vital economic and social role. However, inadequate feed quality…
