➡️ Slurry additive to cut slurry methane emissions by 80% (+locks in nutrients, cuts odour & reduces gas safety hazard) ~ farm roll out 2024 ➡️ Feed pellet to cut bovine methane by 30% (also improves performance) ~ roll out from 2024/25 Costs & detail to come @farmersjournal – at Galway, Ireland

As the world’s population grows, how do we increase food production, reduce greenhouse gas emissions & manage waste, all at once? At the Microbial Ecology Laboratory #NUI Galway, researchers are discovering how. @voflab @phosphorus_ie @Ryaninstitute bit.ly/3RQJGRj

Something interesting growing in my reactor. Still don't know what is the function of these "macaroni", seems that the microbes love to grow on it. @voflab #phdlife #Microbiology #SEM
