Effect of peat moss on ammonia and hydrogen sulfide emissions from manure of Hanwoo and dairy cows

Key Points

• This research aims to evaluate the impact of peat moss on reducing ammonia and hydrogen sulfide emissions from cattle manure.
• Conducted a randomized trial with Hanwoo and dairy cows' manure
• Measured ammonia and hydrogen sulfide emissions
• Applied varying amounts of peat moss to manure samples
• Peat moss reduced ammonia emissions by 30% (p<0.05)
• Hydrogen sulfide emissions decreased by 40% (p<0.01)
• Findings indicate significant improvements in air quality from treated manure
