Business Leaders, Global Experts Convene in Effort to Move Livestock Production to Climate-Neutrality and Achieve Zero Hunger - Seite 3

“I believe in the next five to seven years we will be able to reduce the emissions associated with livestock by as much as 70% through innovations across the production process,” said Mike McCloskey, Co-Founder and CEO of Select Milk Producers. “These range from methods to reduce emissions associated with forage and grain production to genetic selection for improved feed efficiency or for animals that naturally emit less methane and finally to feed ingredients that improve feed digestibility or reduce enteric methane production. These are opportunities for the world, whether you have 1 cow or 1,000 cows.”
