    Abstract:

    According to the amount of animal husbandry in Hubei Province from 2007 to 2014 and the “Guidelines for the provincial inventory of greenhouse gas emissions (Trial)”,the potential of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during livestock production in Hubei Province were evaluated. Besides,the total GHG emissions from different regions of Hubei Province in 2010,the methane (CH4) from gastrointestinal fermentation and manure management systems,and N2O from manure management systems,were compared. The results showed that:(1) There was an increasing trend of GHG emissions in Hubei Province from 2007 to 2014,and the amount in 2014 reached 15 350 100 tons of CO2eq; (2) The high emissions appeared in Xiangyang,Xiaogan,Huanggang and Enshi areas in 2010,accounting for 58.81% of the total; (3) Non-dairy cattle and buffalo contributed for 43% and 31% for CH4 generated from gastrointestinal fermentation,respectively; Pig manure was the main source of CH4 and N2O emissions,accounting for 83% and 39%,respectively.
