Potential of Seaweeds to Mitigate Production of Greenhouse Gases during Production of Ruminant Proteins

Global Challenges, 2023
The potential of seaweed to mitigate methane is real and studies with red seaweeds have found reductions in methane produced from ruminants fed red seaweeds in the region of 60–90% where the active compound responsible for this is bromoform.
