- Enteric Methane Output: Quantifies daily methane production from respiration and eructation, linking it to feed type, intake, and milk yield.
- Metabolic Gas Profiling: Measures CO₂, O₂, and H₂ to assess respiration, fermentation dynamics, and energy metabolism.
- Integrated with Intake and Bodyweight Tools: Links with SmartFeed and SmartScale to track feed-to-milk efficiency and changes in weight or condition.
- Methane per Liter of Milk: Tracks how efficiently cows convert feed into milk with minimal methane output, optimizing both nutrition and sustainability.
- Ration Adjustment: Identifies how different TMR formulations, forage qualities, or additives affect enteric fermentation and gas losses.
- Low-Emission Cow Identification: Enables genetic selection of cows with naturally lower methane emissions without compromising milk yield.
- Breeding for Sustainability: Supports development of methane-focused EBVs, integrating emissions into modern dairy breeding objectives.
- Quantified Methane Reductions: GreenFeed data is accepted in carbon offset protocols for methane mitigation—unlocking new revenue opportunities.
- Sustainability Branding: Validates low-emission milk production, enhancing access to climate-smart supply chains and ESG-driven contracts. ADD ENDORSEMENTS LOOK AT CARBON CREDIT TAB IN NOTION
- Fermentation Insight: Elevated H₂ or altered CH₄ patterns can indicate subclinical acidosis or inefficient digestion.
- Health Monitoring: Changes in CO₂ and O₂ may reflect respiratory or metabolic stress, enabling proactive intervention for high-value lactating cows.
- Milk with Lower Environmental Impact: Emission monitoring allows for targeted interventions that reduce the carbon footprint per gallon of milk.
- Data-Driven Dairy Nutrition: Fine-tunes diets to support high yield while minimizing waste and emissions.
- Aligns with Global Policy and Market Demand: Supports compliance with GHG reduction frameworks, such as the Global Methane Pledge, and access to premium milk markets.
