Potential of plantain as an approach to mitigate nitrous oxide emissions: A webinar from Ag Emissions Centre & Teagasc Climate Centre
Monday 8th December 2026
Plantain, a perennial herb with a deep and fibrous root system, offers multiple agronomic and environmental advantages. Recent research suggests that including plantain in pasture systems may mitigate nitrous oxide emissions via several mechanisms. However, findings remain variable across studies, with results ranging from significant emission reductions to negligible or even opposite effects. This webinar featured the latest research updates from New Zealand and Ireland.This webinar is part of the 2025 Ag Emissions Centre State of the Science webinar series and a collaborative effort between Teagasc and the Ag Emissions Centre.
