I wonder what the unintended consequences of this will be...and there always is one.

A single cow produces 3 tons of methane a year? How did they measure cow farts. Did they ask the cows to measure their farts? What cow manure...

Went on a 4H trip to MSU when our daughter was young. They have a living cow there with a rumen with a porthole. The rumen is the biggest digestive part. Most kids could not stand the smell, very fermented because it’s supposed to be. And fermentation causes gas. It didn’t smell bad to me at all (sauerkraut maker).

Point of clarification from the scientists out there.

What does what happens inside the cow’s digestive system really matter?

Even if the digested food passes completely through the cow without any flatulence, you’ve still got manure on the ground that decomposes and produces the same effect.

Right? or Wrong?

We live in a time of extreme paradox. Conditions in the modern western world are such that many have the luxury of living lives where the biggest concern and perceived threat comes from bovine flatulence. Generally speaking, their solutions are to return to conditions where they will no longer have the luxury of such petty trifles, and will have to deal with more legitimate base concerns such as hunger and heat.
