The project will form the basis for reducing methane emissions from cattle by 1 million tonnes of CO2 by 2030, corresponding to the government's agreement on the green transformation of Danish agriculture. The mean of action is the implementation of feed additives, feed materials and feeding strategies to reduce the methane emission from the cow.

Equipment will be installed to measure methane emissions from individual cows on several cattle farms. This will provide a unique trial setup to test and optimize the allocation of feed additives under practical conditions in order to achieve the greatest possible reduction in methane emissions, without affecting the cows' feed intake, milk yield, health or welfare. Furthermore, the project must ensure that the quality of the milk and meat is not impaired by the use of feed additives.

The project will provide a unique opportunity to bring the feed additives and feeding strategies closer to Danish farmers and companies and enable them to be the first worldwide to implement these strategies and additives in practice to reduce methane emissions
Description

This transcontinental network is cooperating to accelerate the development of cellular agriculture technologies by sharing knowledge, building new connections and creating a stronger basis for production development and commercialization foods from cell cultures. Description

Sustainable food requires a production path without negative impact on the environment and at the same time deliver nutrients such as protein and fat. In many meals, meat contribute with proteins and fat, however traditional meat production is challenged, because it draws heavily on land and water resources and contribute significantly to greenhouse gas emission. Cultured meat is a future way to produce the same nutrients, with severely reduced impact on the environment. This project focuses on development of taste addressing marbling by introduction of lipids in the tissue engineering process and maturation through controlling physical parameters after muscle tissue engineering i.e. in the processes when muscle turn into meat.Description
