Rumin8 feed additive passes American tests, backing methane reduction and carbon credit claims
businessnews.com.auPerth based startup Rumin8, backed by Andrew Forrest and Bill Gates, says its cattle feed additive has been validated by tests across the Americas. The company reports the additive reduces methane emissions from livestock, improves feed efficiency, and can generate carbon credits. This is a concrete step in the livestock methane reduction space, which is a growing part of voluntary carbon markets. The validation from independent tests adds credibility to the claims, though the article does not specify the exact methane reduction percentage or the methodology used for carbon credit verification. For anyone tracking agricultural methane solutions or carbon credit supply from livestock, this is worth a closer look. The involvement of high profile investors also signals that the sector is attracting serious capital, but the real test will be whether the credits meet registry standards and scale beyond pilot trials.
