Two of the sources of methane are Cattle Farms and Wastes tips.

Cows and rubbish tips do release methane as the result of bacteria decomposing waste, but other sources include paddy fields (yes, even rice is harming the environment) and underground natural gas deposits.

The main sources of methane are in fossil fuel, livestock, and landfills. Methane is released whenever fossil fuels are retained from the Earth. Farm animals like cows or sheep release methane as a byproduct as they digest. In landfills, our garbage gets piled upon each other over time into conditions where oxygen is not available and methane is created.
