Summary of the main methodologies for individual methane measurements

Method Robust Intrusive Cost Throughput
Respiration chamber Yes Yes High Low
Short-term accumulation chamber Yes Yes, but easily managed with grazing animals Low High
Greenfeed monitors ? Moderately, requires modified grazing pattern High Moderate
SF6 ? Yes for sampling, less so for grazing High Moderate
