Summary : Measuring and reporting livestock greenhouse gas emissions must work not only in formulas, but also in real institutions, farms, programs, and reporting systems. This publication distills lessons from pilot measuring, reporting, and verification (MRV) activities in Indonesia, Vietnam, and Lao PDR, showing that there is no single template for livestock MRV and that effective systems must respond to country contexts, data users, and reporting requirements. Developed through the collaboration of the New Zealand Ag Emissions Centre (formerly the New Zealand Agricultural Greenhouse Gas Research Centre) and SEARCA, it offers timely insights for building practical, credible, and policy-relevant MRV systems for climate-smart livestock action in Southeast Asia. This publication forms part of the four-title Climate-Smart Livestock Series, a special set of SEARCA Agriculture and Development Notes developed to support more accurate livestock greenhouse gas inventories and climate-smart livestock action in Southeast Asia.
