Contract for the Provision of SCF02017 (SEASOLUTIONS)

Ruminant production is responsible for ~9% of anthropogenic CO2 emission and 37% of CH4 emissions, thus contributing towards greenhouse gas emissions and climate change. This release of methane from the rumen microbiome also results in 6-12% less energy being available to the animal therefore reducing methane emissions in ruminants will also likely improve upon their growth. Current agricultural policies have been designed to encourage agricultural practices which secure high yields of healthy food, but also must ensure environmental goals such as minimizing emission of greenhouse gases (GHG). However, a common notion is that the required environmental performances necessarily result in lowe…
