    CQUniversity recently concluded a laboratory trial to identify methane-reducing compounds that could be delivered via drinking water. Of these compounds, Rumin8’s product recorded a 99% reduction in methane production without a decrease in digestibility. The study found that: “The clear standout compounds in terms of methane reduction were sodium monensin (64pc methane reduction) and the Rumin8 IVP (99pc methane reduction), delivering significant methane production reductions without impacting in vitro dry matter digestibility,” Rumin8’s CEO David Messina said: “This trial indicated almost total methane elimination in a laboratory setting, which was really pleasing for Rumin8,” “The CQU trial results were consistent with the trial results from other in vitro and in vivo (animal) studies. The impact on IVDMD is important, as negative IVDMD is viewed as a proxy for productivity losses, as animals can’t convert the feed’s dry matter into energy.” More details here: https://lnkd.in/gYPZgcAB #ResearchandDevelopment #AgTech

    Rumin8 has achieved another important milestone in bringing our methane-reducing feed additives to market after receiving feed ingredient approval from the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Food Supply in Brazil.   This is a significant development for Rumin8 as we advance through regulatory milestones, and is a major leap forward in accessing the world's largest cattle herd.   The Brazilian approval follows the provisional regulatory authorization in New Zealand in late July.   “Rumin8 is very quickly building a bank of regulatory authorizations required to progress the commercialization of our methane-reducing feed additives for livestock,” said Rumin8 CEO David Messina. “Two regulatory authorities have now assessed the safety data of our products, and both have allowed us to proceed through an important regulatory gateway. That provides Rumin8 with confidence that we are on the right pathway.”   With the receipt of the Brazilian feed ingredient approval, Rumin8 can progress efficacy and safety studies in commercial animals to generate the required data for full approval in Brazil. Brazil has the largest cattle herd in the world, at almost 235 million head, providing a major opportunity for Rumin8. By comparison, the US cattle herd is ~95 million head, and the Australian herd is ~30 million head.   ⬇️ Read more in the comments.   #Brazil #AgTech #Methane #Livestock

    Rumin8's Caroline Heller had the opportunity to present at the 2024 Kansas City Animal Health Corridor Annual Summit last week to a sold-out audience.   The summit brought together global leaders in animal health and nutrition and featured presentations on industry trends, challenges and opportunities.   Rumin8 was proud to be one of thirteen emerging companies chosen to showcase innovation in the animal health space, which was a significant focus at this year’s conference.   It was a fantastic opportunity to present our company and technology to industry leaders and provide an update on our commercialization and registration progress.    #AnimalHealth #Methane #Livestock

    Rumin8 has passed an important milestone in bringing our methane reducing feed additives to the market, with the provisional registration by the New Zealand Agricultural Compounds and Veterinary Medicines (ACVM) for our first methane reducing feed additive. This approval is an important first step in the New Zealand registration pathway. It allows for efficacy and safety studies to be conducted in commercial animals to generate the data for final approval in New Zealand. We’re aiming to accelerate our products into the hands of producers with a view to reduce livestock methane emissions and improve productivity. “New Zealand farmers are some of the most innovative farmers globally, and the world continues to learn a lot from them,” said Rumin8 CEO David Messina. “They are already leaders when it comes to producing lower carbon meat and milk, so we’re excited at the prospect of being able to offer a new technology to support their efforts.” We’ve been working with commercial and research partners in New Zealand to test the safety and efficacy of our technology since 2022. This is one of multiple registration processes that are progressing in parallel, with engagement activities with the US FDA and Brazilian MAPA regulatory bodies ramping up off the back of our recent trial results. ⬇️ Read more in the comments.

    When we release new methane reduction results, farmers often ask, “How will your product impact my productivity?”. We’re excited to share new positive top-line results today at the Breakthrough Energy 2024 Summit in London from recent studies that are helping us generate data required to potentially answer these questions. Analysis of three cattle trials showed that cattle produced less methane and gained more weight on average, when fed Rumin8’s development stage methane reducing feed additive. Cattle trials recorded up to 86% reductions in methane intensity and 8.4 to 12.5% higher weight gains compared to control groups that were fed the same base ration.   While our number one focus remains on reducing methane production, we are particularly interested in these initial weight gain figures, because productivity improvements are of high interest to farmers. These initial findings are an exciting step forward and support our early hypothesis that reducing methane can enhance productivity by converting otherwise ‘lost’ energy from the rumination process. ⬇️ Read more and access the studies detail in the comments.  #AgTech #Methane #Climate #Livestock #BESummit24

    Looking forward to this and to catch up with other climate-tech companies that are involved with Breakthrough Energy . I’m speaking at two sessions on Thursday June 27th: “Planes, Grains, Methane, and Orbital Flights: What’s Around the Corner?” from 10.45-11.45am Summit Workshop – Enteric Emissions – the Challenge and the Opportunity from 4.30-5.30pm. Should be a great 2.5 days. #BESummit2024
