Estimating air emissions from animal production in the United States using statistical models: Ammonia emissions from swine grow-finish barns

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: /5.8 %). Model 1b performed better in predicting non-NAEMS emissions, but model 16a had more reasonable sensitivity when barn live animal weight was >215,000 kg. Models using nitrogen feed intake as a predictor variable also performed well in predicting emissions and although these models have greater uncertainty due to limited NAEMS measurements, they could potentially account for changes in feed practices.
