Arla Foods announced they're feeding their cows a chemical called Bovaer®.
The pitch? Reduce methane emissions by 27%. The reality?
Another disturbing experiment in tampering with nature for profit.
Here's what you need to know:
What's in Bovaer®?
The active ingredient, 3-NOP, isn't some harmless magic fix. It's a synthetic compound.
3-Nitrooxypropanol (abbreviated as 3-NOP or 3NOP) is a synthetic organic compound with the formula HOCH2CH2CH2ONO2. It is the mononitrate ester of 1,3-propanediol and acts as an enzyme inhibitor that specifically targets methyl coenzyme M reductase (MCR), the enzyme that catalyzes the final step of methanogenesis in microbes living in the digestive system of ruminants, such as cows and sheep.
Bovaer is a feed additive that reduces methane emissions from cows, and is considered safe for human consumption: — oh yummy!
What it is
Bovaer is a brand name for the additive 3-Nitrooxypropanol (3-NOP), which is mixed into small amounts of cow feed.
How it works
Bovaer helps cows digest food and reduces flatulence, which is a major source of methane emissions.
Safety
Bovaer is approved for use in many countries, including the US, EU, Australia, and Canada. The Food Standards Agency (FSA) has assessed the safety of Bovaer and concluded that it poses no safety concerns when used at the approved dose.
Benefits
Bovaer can reduce methane emissions from cows by up to 45%, which could help reduce the impact of agriculture on global warming.
Cows aren't the problem.
Methane is a natural byproduct of a cow's digestion, a process evolved over millennia to sustain their health and balance ecosystems. This isn't a flaw; it's biology.
The real enemy? Industrial farming, monoculture crops, and a food system prioritizing convenience over sustainability.
Messing with nature isn't the solution.
Feeding cows synthetic chemicals disrupts the delicate microbial ecosystem in their stomachs. This could lead to nutrient deficiencies, health issues, and a ripple effect on the quality of milk and meat.
Cows are not machines to
"optimise." They're living creatures central to regenerative agriculture.
When left to graze naturally, they sequester carbon, build healthy soil, and provide food that nourishes us properly.
Follow the money.
This isn't about saving the planet.
It's about grants, greenwashing, and corporate profits. King Charles and Bill Gates have heavy investmented much philanthropy in methane-reduction resulting in tech like Bovaer®, and cow masks, creating dependency systems that choke out small, ethical farmers.
When was the last time a massive corporation did something "for the environment" without strings attached?
️What can you do?
------------------------
️Stop supporting companies like Arla, Tesco, and Morrisons that enable these practices.
Instead:
️Buy from local, pasture-raised farms.
️Choose grass-fed, raw dairy and meat.
️Support farmers who respect nature, not exploit it.
️Talk about these issues and become more aware of what you eat and drink.
