<!--
Direct CH₄ emission factor, **kg CH₄ (kg VS)⁻¹**. Only the `*KgVs` columns are populated (the factor is defined per unit of volatile solids); `*KgN`/`*KgMass` columns are `-`.

Each cell is grouped by ecoClimateZone **and** productivity with the compound key `{ecoClimateZone}_{high|low}`, e.g. `1_high:0.0595;1_low:0.0322;3_high:...`. ecoClimateZones 5 and 6 (Polar) have no Table 10.14 value and are omitted; productivity follows the region HDI convention (`high` when HDI > 0.8, else `low`), the same split used by `region-excreta-excretaManagement-ch4B0`.

Mapping notes:
- `excretaBeefCattle*` → Non Dairy Cattle; `excretaBuffalo` → low-productivity Non Dairy Cattle for both `high` and `low` (Table 10.14 note 6).
- `excretaHorsesMulesAndAsses` uses the **Horses** values (Mules/Asses are slightly higher in Table 10.14 but share the term).
- `excretaDucks`/`excretaTurkeys`/`excretaGeese` → Poultry; Poultry `low` is the flat "All Systems" 2.4 g·kg⁻¹.
- `pitStorageBelowAnimalConfinements`, `liquidSlurry*` → the Liquid/Slurry (>1 month) value; `deepBedding`, `poultryManureWith/WithoutLitter` → Solid storage; `periodicSpread` → Daily spread.
- Camels/High/Dry lot/Warm is `0` (printed as 0.0 in Table 10.14 — kept verbatim).
- Practices absent from Table 10.14 (composting, aerobic treatment, water body, detailed digester variants, deep-bedding mixing sub-types) are `-`.

`excretaInsects*` and `excretaBees*` are `-`: farmed insects and bees have no IPCC Table 10.14
category, and their CH₄ is modelled via `region-excreta-excretaManagement-ch4B0` (B0 × MCF), not this
direct-EF table.
