Agricultural methane signals were reclassified to distinguish enteric fermentation from manure management pathways. The structural separation improves mechanism clarity in downstream attribution modeling, especially where allocation depends on process-level distinctions rather than sector labels alone.

No aggregate methane totals were changed. This update affects classification granularity and interpretive binding, not magnitude.
