Reducing ammonia and GHG emissions from livestock farming

Sustainable livestock farming in the EU reduces ammonia and methane emissions through innovative manure management. The Gasloop project in Italy captures ammonia from pig stables using air washing, converting it into ammonium sulphate fertilizer and cutting emissions by 62% and carbon footprint by 66 kg CO2 per ton of pig. In Spain, FertiCoop Go improves slurry management, reduces phosphorus runoff, and enhances soil fertility using precision farming techniques. Both projects support circular economy principles, replace chemical fertilizers, and provide training and digital tools for farmers.
