- Reposted by Geoffrey MesbahiHappy to share that our new paper is out! We quantify multiple ecosystem services in rangelands with standardized global data from #NutNet 🦌🐄🦬, and show how their synergies and trade-offs shift with grazing exclusion and fertilization 🌿🌏💫 doi.org/10.1002/fee.... @esajournals.bsky.social

- In Europe, dairy male calves are often exported⛴️🚚 to Spain or Italy to be fattened, despite being a source of stress and disease. For the H2020 ReLivestock project at FiBL, we fattened calves on grass in Switzerland 🇨🇭 and evaluated its feasibility: calves' health, productivity, CH4 emissions, etc.

- If Swiss dairy relied mostly on grassland (little concentrate feed), we could feed 1M more people. Production would drop 15%, matching current surpluses. Cutting maize would feed 500K more. But small amounts of concentrate and maize help balance diets. www.agrarforschungschweiz.ch/en/2025/12/h...

However, since the 1990s, this trend seems to have stopped or even reversed. dx.doi.org/10.1111/ele....
