Carbon Emissions Reduction

Rumin8: New compound provides more methane reducing options for producers

A new compound to reduce methane emissions from cattle has been developed and tested by Rumin8, using a novel “prodrug” approach – which is inactive when consumed – but only becomes active after it is ingested by ruminants.

Study: Carbon footprint of feed partially offsets benefits of grazing

Although increased grazing can reduce carbon emissions in some circumstances, new research says the benefits are less certain when supplemental feed enters the mix.
