Fig. 4: Managing agricultural ponds to reduce their methane emissions.
From: Methane emissions from agricultural ponds are underestimated in national greenhouse gas inventories
a Livestock manure and fertiliser often accumulate in agricultural ponds to create ideal conditions for methane production. Image credit: Martino E. Malerba b Simple management interventions, such as fencing to exclude livestock, are cost-effective solutions for reducing these emissions while providing additional environmental benefits (e.g., higher water quality, biodiversity, agricultural productivity, and aesthetic value)22,23,24.
