Arla Foods, facing calls for a boycott, is partnering with British retailers to trial Bovaer, a feed that reduces methane emissions from dairy cattle by 27%. The trial has sparked controversy over potential long-term effects on animal health and the environment.

Plants absorb carbon dioxide through photosynthesis and convert it into carbohydrates. Cattle consume these plants and release methane, which breaks down into carbon dioxide after about 12 years, restarting the cycle. Eco-activists are targeting dairy farms, leading to the development of new feeds to reduce emissions. Bovaer , developed by Elanco Animal Health, is one such feed, reducing methane emissions from dairy cattle by almost 30%.
