Telegraph- Why Bill Gates is under fire over cow flatulence
Bovaer, which reduces the methane emissions from cows by 27 per cent on average, has been authorised for use in a number of countries, including Australia, Brazil and Canada. It was given the green light for use in the UK in April.
Western Producer- New methane feed additive pleases producers
Beef and dairy leaders are praising a new methane reduction tool recently approved for use in Canada.
The Food Professor- The drug was approved for use in Canada earlier this year, but no one knows how many cattle producers and dairy farmers are using it. Canada did not learn from the GMO and Buttergate debates, leaving consumers in the dark once again.
We already pump cattle full of sex hormones to promote faster growth so why not more chemicals.
Eggzactly. (sic)
Probably because the ever increasing number of chemicals pumped into the animal could affect the meat’s taste and safetiness.
The article says that the chemical has been “rigorously and extensively tested” without providing more information re those tests. I remain skeptical considering Bill Gates’ involvement.
Or pasture fed, on intense rotation, happy fat cows that take a little longer but are so much healthier and you don’t need to waste your time gardening because the cows did it for you.
Cows have every right to blow as many farts as they wish and big ones too. Size Doesn’t matter ….
The wind blows them all away, so what’s the problem?
Don’t inject our food with big pharma poison.
It would be more productive to get Al Gore, John Carry. Bill Gates and few others to shut their big mouths. The stench they are spewing is old and no one wants to hear it anymore. Plus, they are starting to sound really insane. That scares the kids.
Bullshit?
Beano baby!
Wait until they find out how much methane insects and the rotting vegetation in forests put out.
“The drug was approved for use in Canada earlier this year…”
…because what harm could a drug that alters a cow’s entire digestive process possibly do? To the cow, to the manure, to the people that eat the cow… not important, you peasants! This is about Gaia!
The one that I remain amazed at is ractopamine hydrochloride. Canada and US allow it (hopefully RFK Jr looks at it) but 160 countries ban it. Not only does Canada let it be fed to cattle, pigs, turkeys we then had fraudulent certificates to allow the meat to be exported to countries that ban it. To pick up a few nickels on the margin while destroying your industry’s reputation.

We need a new drug to reduce mental flatulence in human brains that have been infected with the Green hysteria.
Speaking of Bill Gates:

I’d avoid anything Bill Gates supported like the plague.
Can pasteurization eliminate it from milk if used in dairy cows? I sure don’t want it in my body. The world has gone nuts. Cow farts are now going to kill us all ???
I’m thinking of mixing it up with ground corn and grain and feeding it to the deer and moose. The real benefit should be decreased predation by wolves/coyotes on the upwind ruminant herds.
I heard “BEANO” works wonders.
Are consumers clamoring for flatulence treated beef? I doubt it and I doubt there is much use by the ranch community.
The real culprit will be dairy imo.
They are the politically correct part of the cattle industry and are virtually unaffected by international markets who might vigorously oppose the use of ‘cow beano’.
Fun with cows. North American cow population approximately 80 million of which 40 million are beef cows. Apparently they die every year and get replaced. Population of bison in North America in 1700 was approximately 50 to 60 million and they are bigger than cattle. Would it be possible that the total outgassing is roughly equal.
