Abstract
• Simple flock management practises that increase productivity per ewe will also reduce emissions per unit animal-product sold. • The reductions in emissions intensity observed for an individual sheep is typically greater than seen on the farm scale, due to resultant changes in ewe/lamb numbers while feed availability is unchanged.
