That isn't contested. Decomposing grass won't yield those methane emissions, at the very least insofar as it won't decompose at the same rate.
- beerandt 5y agoThat's not the alternate reality though. The land will be put into productive use that's doesn't include leaving it to decompose on it's own, at it's own rate. It's either still harvested as hay and fed to something else, or the they grow something else, like corn, that they intentionally ferment into either other feed or energy products.
