Government Invests in Methane Research
The New Zealand Government has invested $8 million in the LIC "Methane Barn" to help dairy farmers reduce emissions.
"The research will enable farmers to select lower-emitting genetics and will be a valuable tool to help reduce biogenic methane without harming productivity,"
Agriculture Minister Todd McClay announced the investment at the opening of a new methane research facility in Waikato. The "Methane Barn" will allow for large-scale monitoring and measurement of methane produced by lactating cows.
The research aims to provide farmers with the tools to reduce emissions without compromising productivity. As McClay notes,
"We are committed to meeting our climate obligations without closing down farms and sending jobs and production overseas."
