Development and use of methane-inhibiting feed supplements in dairy farming

This chapter explores feed supplements that inhibit enteric methane production. It begins by discussing opportunities to inhibit this through nutrition and then moves on to analyse methane-inhibiting feed supplements. Next, it focuses on the invention and discovery of methane mitigators. The chapter then analyses intellectual property and regulatory issues, as well as accounting for secondary effects. After this, it outlines the development of feed supplement supply chains, and incentivising feed supplement use. Finally, it details Measurement, reporting and verification, and the measures needed to achieve societal acceptance of new technologies.
