Abstract

The paper aimed to present the evolution of green house gases emissions from entheric fermentation and manure management at nonruminants Romanian livestock during the period 2014 -2017. The emissions are based on the data provided by National Institute for Statistics. The data have been processed into the following indicators: nonruminants livestock, number of: breeding females (sows), swine youth categories as piglets (under 20 kg and 20-50 kg), fattening swine, breeding swine, horses, for entheric fermentation. For manure management were including two poultry categories: broilers and adult laying chickens. All categories included in this study were in accordance with IPCC Good Practice Guidance and Uncertainty Management in National Greenhouse Gas Inventories, 2006, and parameters used in equations have national values (gross energy intake, digestible energy, EF, MS, Nex). The researchproved that the green house gases emission trend from entheric fermentation and manure management were descending, due to the decrease in the number of animals, and due to conversion to sustainable agriculture sustained by government subsidies for environmental measures.
