type=“graphical”>巴西温室气体排放量（GHG）预计将达到32亿吨（二氧化碳当量）。到2020年政府已自愿承诺将这一数字减少40%，减少森林砍伐和减轻牲畜损失的措施是这一承诺的关键组成部分。以塞拉多核心（巴西中部萨凡纳）为重点，我们分析了减排潜力和适用于畜牧业生产的温室气体减排措施的成本效益。我们专注于集约化措施的作用，特别是牧场恢复和动物性能，以实现增加牛肉产量以满足更高需求的目标，同时减少排放。
type="graphical"> Brazilian greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) are projected to reach 3.2 gigatonnes (CO 2 eq.) by 2020. The government has made a voluntary commitment to reduce this figure by 40 per cent. A reduction in deforestation and livestock mitigation measures are key components of this commitment. Focusing on the Cerrado core (central Brazilian Savannah), we analyse abatement potential and cost-effectiveness of GHG mitigation measures applicable to livestock production. We focus on the role of intensification measures, particularly pasture restoration and animal performance to meet the objectives of increasing beef production to meet higher demand, while simultaneously reducing emissions.
