Abstract
Presently, India possesses 57% of world’s buffalo and 16% of cattle population. Contribution of methane
emission by Indian buffaloes is 42% (Chhabra et al., 2009). The addition of altemate electron acceptors to the rumen seems
to be a logical mean of reducing methane emission, So the aim of the present study was to assess the effect of nitrate on
methane production in growing Murrah buffaloes.
