Feeding and raising livestock accounts for roughly 14.5 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions. Both cow farts and burps produce methane. However, 97 percent of all the methane gas from a cow is ...
Feed additives suit intensive farms but different solutions for methane reduction are needed for pasture-raised cattle, says ...
Methane isn’t just an environmental buzzword—it is energy lost. Every puff of gas from a cow’s rumen represents feed energy that could have gone toward growth, milk or a calf. That simple truth is ...
Seaweed is once again showing promise for making cattle farming more sustainable. A new study by researchers at the University of California, Davis, found that feeding grazing beef cattle a seaweed ...
When Leluo Guan peers inside a cow's stomach, she sees more than microbes—she sees an opportunity to cut methane emissions from cattle and improve profits for beef and dairy farmers. Cattle are ...
Cow flatulence can warm the planet, emitting a harmful methane gas that stays in the atmosphere and traps heat from the sun. But UC Davis researchers have a partial solution. The UC Davis study shows ...
ORANGE, Australia, March 05, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a world-first, Australian scientists have discovered specific fungi that assist in significantly reducing methane emissions from livestock, ...
Every 10 seconds, human activity emits over 4,000 metric tonnes of greenhouse gases (GHGs) into the atmosphere. While carbon dioxide (CO₂) remains the most abundant of these gases, methane (CH₄) is ...
In recent years, researchers have begun using satellite imaging to detect methane plumes from factory farms — but the picture ...
Oregon State University researchers want to find a way to make your hamburger less bad for the planet by feeding cows in the pasture an unlikely food that’s not grown on land — seaweed. From feed ...
