The Strategy for the Development of Low-carbon Animal Husbandry in Taiwan and the Lessons Drawn from It

In this paper, we analyze the strategies for the development of low-carbon animal husbandry in Taiwan which mainly focuses on strengthening the livestock farm carbon reduction, promoting the livestock breeding energy conservation and emission reduction technology, and develop the environmental protection laws related to animal husbandry to combat animal husbandry pollution. Learning from the strategies and legislative management experience for the development of low-carbon animal husbandry in Taiwan, we set forth the following recommendations for improving the development of low-carbon animal husbandry in mainland China: increasing the financial investment in environmental protection; strengthening the scientific research of cleaner production; promoting sound pollution control legislation; moderately restricting the scale of livestock and poultry farm.
