As Jeff Bezos backs a methane-blasting vaccine, we look at other ways to stop cow farts – from a diet of seaweed and roo poo ...
Jeff Bezos, the owner of Amazon, has invested more than £7 million in a project trying to find a vaccine to stop cows ...
The main culprit is methane, a greenhouse gas by-product of the fermentation processes in a bovine’s rumen, its largest stomach compartment. Manure and belching account for roughly 32% of ...
Methane is produced in the rumen when plant matter breaks down. Graziers have been working with researchers and start-ups to find ways to introduce supplements to the feed of their stock in ...
Azerbaijan and Bulgaria are developing bilateral relations at a high pace, Bulgarian President Rumen Radev told reporters ...
One tablespoon of Bovaer per lactating dairy cow a day can reduce methane emissions by about 30 per cent, or about 1.2 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions annually, the company said.
A: My research has generated new insights into the rumen microbiome, paving the way for novel interventions to reduce methane emissions from livestock. The detailed profiles of rumen microorganisms ...
A potent greenhouse gas, methane is generated by manure as it decomposes, but is also burped out by ruminants, who produce it in a stomach compartment called the rumen. Here, microbes break down ...
Though pig and cow husbandry generates 18.5 million tons of CO2e each year, the deputy chair of the Vietnam Farm and ...
“Bovaer inhibits the last step of methane formation in the rumen,” said Sara Kvidera, dairy technical consultant for Elanco Animal Health. “It is connecting the needs of the dairy food ...
He is the author of more than 300 journal papers, including the first paper to demonstrate that lower methane emissions in cattle could be selected for with genomic breeding values, and the first ...
It was hypothesized that algae would positively affect rumen fermentation and gas production while reducing methane production. The hypothesis was tested using an Ankom automated gas monitoring system ...
