The challenge

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas that traps heat 30 times better than CO2. The livestock industry is currently one of the main producers of methane, being responsible for 14.5% of total methane emissions produced by humans. Reducing greenhouse gases in any way possible is needed to make the shift to carbon neutral or negative technologies

The solution

Making a food additive which's main compound has been proven to reduce methane production in ruminant animals by up to 92%

Reducing the Methane production of cows whilst also increasing their weight using a feed additive.
