Carbon balance of yak ranch in alpine meadow

Figure 5. Net GHG balance (kg CO2-eq ha-1 year-1) of yak grazing farm system under different grazing management. NGHG: Net GHG emission balance; HSR: high stocking rate; MSR: moderate stocking rate; LSR: low stocking rate; Fenced: no grazing. Negative values indicate uptake, and positive values indicate emission. FCO2-Farm input refers to the indirect emissions of GHG originating from the combustion of fossil fuels to support agricultural operations, including herd management and electricity supply. Fmanure indicates the total GHG emission from manure management, including CH4 and N2O emissions from yak night pens, manure heaps, dung and urine patches and CO2 equivalents from the combustion of dry stored manure.
