Volta Greentech
Fully natural seaweed-based feed supplement for cows to reduce methane emissions
There are 1.5 billion cows on the planet that together burp out 5% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. That’s 2x more emissions than the world’s fleet of airplanes. Volta Greentech works with the beef and dairy industry to reduce emissions to mitigate global warming. By providing farmers with the means to drastically reduce the methane emissions produced by dairy cows and beef cattle. Volta Seafeed is a feed supplement which when fed to cows at a daily dose of 100 grams reduces methane emissions by up to 80%. The feed is based on a mix of red seaweeds and include natural bioactive compounds that block one of the enzymes that microbial methanogens in the rumen use to produce methane. This eliminates the majority of the methane gas the cow burp out and unlock more energy in the form of hydrogen and carbon, that previously was used to produce the unwanted byproduct methane. This increase the animals wellbeing and productivity.
