Researchers spotlight how selecting cattle for lower methane emissions could deliver long-term gains in efficiency and ...

Methane is a major contributor to global heating, and cows produce a lot of it. There may, however, be a way to reduce all that gas: seaweed. On a research farm at the University of New Hampshire, ...

The idea of cows grazing in a pasture seems idyllic. We asked experts how their emissions stack up compared to factory farms.

In case you haven't heard, the methane in cow burps is a major source of greenhouse gases. There may be a new way of addressing that problem, however, as a recent study shows that feeding cows clay ...

With the big concern today (whether valid or not) and the movement to reduce methane gas production and other greenhouse gases as a way to combat so-called climate change, a lot of attention has been ...

It's not often that cows are part of global warming solutions, but a new type of feed could change that. University of Florida researchers have discovered that a new cow feed could cut down on cow ...

Innovative practices — from diet additives to regenerative grazing — can offer quick wins in the fight against global rising ...

Researchers are exploring a new way to feed dairy cows that could help cut down on methane emissions while improving digestion. The new feed supplement, made from flaxseed and pea protein, may offer a ...

Farmers blame a food additive required by the Danish government to cut methane emissions, but the source is unclear.

PULLS THOSE MATCHING NUMBERS. A NEW UNH STUDY IS SHOWING SOME PROMISING EFFECTS OF FEEDING SEAWEED TO DAIRY COWS. NOW HEAR ME OUT HERE, RESEARCHERS ADDED SEAWEED TO THE FEED OF A GROUP OF DAIRY COWS ...

The poor things can’t help it, but cows are really gassy, and that’s really bad for the planet: Microbes in their guts produce methane — a greenhouse gas up to 80 times more powerful than carbon ...

The dairy industry might not seem like a major climate villain, but it’s responsible for about 4% of human-caused greenhouse gas emissions worldwide, most of that from cow burps. That’s right: when ...
