This document discusses research on the impact of genetic selection for performance traits on methane emissions from Merino sheep. It finds that selecting for increased meat or wool production (14% MP index) could potentially increase or decrease methane emissions depending on the genetic correlations between methane production and the selected traits. If correlations are positive, methane would increase with selection, but if negative, methane would decrease. The economic implications are that selecting for methane reduction may be worthwhile if negative correlations exist and carbon prices are high enough to offset reduced production. Sensitivity analyses show results are impacted by assumptions about genetic parameters. In conclusion, whether measuring methane or feed intake is economically justified depends on known methane-production correlations.

Typhoon Pablo caused widespread damage through heavy rainfall and flooding in Compostela Valley and Davao Oriental provinces in the Philippines. It resulted in loss of lives and extensive damage to forests, development projects, properties, and infrastructure. Over 119,000 hectares of natural forests were severely damaged, including over 8,600 hectares of closed canopy forests. Nearly 60,000 hectares of development project areas across both provinces were damaged, with estimated costs of over 59 million pesos. A cash-for-work rehabilitation scheme is being developed to help repair the extensive storm damage.

Emissions that farms would be liable for if they become CPRS-covered, or are allocated a tax/fee
that is equivalent to the cost of buying emission permits (likely) (Keogh and Cottle, in press)
10. Methods
• The 10 trait selection index (desired gains) program
MTIndex was used to construct an index based on
SGA Merino 14%MP without yFDCV and SS but
14%MP, SS,
with methane (kg/year.ewe) and feed intake
(kgDM/year.ewe) in the breeding objective
• Methane was given an EV based on Kg Methane X
21 /1000 X (permit price ($/CO2-e)).
– The UNFCCC attributes Methane a 100 year GWP of 21
– Permit price was varied from zero to $500/tCO2-e
• Feed intake was given an EV of zero,-$0.02 or -
$0.10/kg (Ponzoni 1988)
• These two traits were either used as selection
criterion (i e assumed measurement possible) or not
(i.e.

13. Methods
2.05 => SD index 10
NLW EV – lamb’s CH4
lamb’s CH4 = 0.6 * 7.3kg * Methane REV
-0.16 kg/ewe CH4/gen/i =
10% reduction in 10 years
13
14. Methods
$20-$70/tonne
Australian Treasury economic modelling:
CPRS-5 (a 5% emission reduction by 2020)
CPRS 15
CPRS-15 (a 15% reduction by 2020)
2020).
Price $/tCO2-e is somewhat misleadingly called the carbon
price
EV kg methane = $/tCO2-e * 21 (GWP) /1000

16. Results
Positive methane – production correlations
Implicit price to achieve
desired i
d i d gain
Zero $/tCO2‐e is current situation
CH4 would increase with 14% MP if
would increase with 14% MP if
<$180/tCO2‐e
Wool ~ $36/ewe/year
Methane ~ -$4/ewe/year

17. Results
Positive r
Implicit price to achieve

Not worth selecting for
methane

18. Results
Positive r
Feed EV increased – similar results
Both (sire) – sire, half sib records available (stud)

19. Results
Negative correlations
Implicit price to achieve
desired gain
Zero $/tCO2‐e is current situation
CH4 would decrease with 14% MP
would decrease with 14% MP

20. Results
Negative r
Implicit price to achieve
desired gain
Zero $/tCO2‐e is current situation
CH4 would decrease with 14% MP
would decrease with 14% MP
If correlations negative
than it could be worth
selecting for methane

24. Conclusion
Can only assess whether it is worth
measuring feed intake or methane to
g
reduce methane when methane –
p
production correlations are known
– Positive r: very unlikely to be economic
– Negative r: maybe
