Greener Cattle Initiative - University of Wisconsin-Madison

In a recent research initiative led by Francisco Peñagaricano at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, scientists are studying how to selectively breed cows to lower their methane emissions. A crucial component of this research is the use of Calan Feed Stations, which play a vital role in measuring the feed intake of individual cows. These automated systems help researchers track each cow’s daily feed consumption, which is essential for accurately correlating feed intake with methane production. Read full article below:
