#Cattle flatulence doesnt stink with biotechnology: Farmers could improve air quality by using hormonesthe agriculture industry is researching new technologies to help feed the growing population.
According to a new article in Animal Frontiers biotechnologies increase food production and reduce harmful gas output from cattle.
In the Animal Frontiers paper Neumeier describes a recent experiment using biotechnologies. In the experiment a test group of cattle were treated with biotechnologies.
Different groups of cattle received implants Ionophores and Beta-adrenergic agonists. These biotechnologies help cattle grow more efficiently.
A control group of cattle were treated not with any of these biotechnologies. Researchers measured gas output by placing finishing steers in a special corral that traps emissions.
Each treatment group was tested four times to ensure accurate results. The researchers also tested a dairy biotechnology called rbst.
This biotechnology is a synthetic version of a cattle hormone that does not affect humans.
Many producers inject cows with rbst to help them produce more milk. In their experiment the researchers gave rbst to a test group of cows
Some consumers do not like the use of biotechnology in food production. Neumeier thinks these consumers are unaware of the benefits of biotechnology.
His research shows that biotechnology can produce more food and lower gas emissions. We need to inform them that these are valuable tools for those two reasons
