Abstract
Man has always organized his living space near animal farms. Nevertheless, the population growth and the healthiness due to the droppings of these animals have motivated work on the recovery of animal waste. This study follows this logic. It consists in the evaluation of the potential of methane emissions due to the livestock sector in the Administrative Region of Kankan. The methodological approach adopted for this study consists in carrying out a field survey for the census of animal herds, the use of data from different livestock services and the formulas have enabled us to make an estimate of methane emissions from the sector. livestock in the region. The surveys took place from December 15, 2021 to March 30, 2022. The results obtained show that the greatest quantity of emissions is recorded in Siguiri (25772923 kg/year), followed respectively by Kérouané (23452057 kg/year), Mandiana (23023031 kg/year), Kouroussa (20515857 kg/year), and Kankan (16144187 kg/year). With total annual emissions in the region of 108908054 kg/year. The results of this research is a first estimate of the CH4 emission potential due to the livestock sector in the administrative region of Kankan. This study must be encouraged by authorities at all levels of the environmental sector.
