China: Pig farming is responsible for 12% of all ammonia emissions

Pig farming is contributing to environmental and health issues due to high ammonia emissions. Ammonia, an environmental pollutant with adverse effects on public health, animal welfare, and production performance, is released during the breakdown of manure and the use of ammonia-based fertilizers. A 2022 study by Wenhao Qin's team at Huazhong Agricultural University revealed that ammonia exposure can cause lung damage in pigs, leading to inflammation and oxidative stress. Another study by Xiaotong Wang's team in 2020 found that short-term exposure to high ammonia levels can cause nasal mucosal hyperplasia and lung damage in pigs. Low concentrations of ammonia can still harm humans and animals by irritating the respiratory tract and affecting various organs.

Pigs are often compared to Olympians: they have to perform excellently during their 5-6 months in the barn. For this, they need fresh air. Research has shown that pig pens filled with pungent ammonia do not provide the necessary accommodation for superior performance. The intensification of pig farming has led to high concentrations of ammonia emissions from commercial pig farms. Ammonia is one of the most important environmental pollutants from natural and several anthropogenic sources, which has adverse effects on public health and the health, welfare and production performance of pigs. In addition, ammonia plays a significant role in the formation of airborne dust, reduced visibility, and atmospheric deposition of nitrogen in sensitive ecosystems. Therefore, it is important to be aware of ammonia sources, impacts, and approaches to address the challenge. Ammonia is a major component of all reactive nitrogen. It is also an alkaline gas that dissolves in the atmosphere and can ...
