Reduce protein in rations

Less excess protein in the diet means less N excreted and less GHG & ammonia emissions.  The protein content of Autumn grass is high, greater than 20%.  The requirements for protein of mid/late lactation animals or finishing animals for protein is met by grass only.  Energy is the most limiting nutrient in this type of grass, supplement with energy and low protein.
