In all my time of running a dairy farm, I do not recall ever having heard a cow fart. I can say the word “fart” here, can’t I; it is after all a four-letter word, just like the word “word”? Indeed, I am worse than any cow, after a feed of baked beans! Seriously, cows may do the occasional burp, but I have never seen proof that this is a major factor in methane production. But it has set off the hysterical fire siren of the kooky environmentalists. And in the UK, it looks to be a big thing, to control cows, before ultimately cancelling them.
Thus, the proposal is to give cows methane suppressants to at least control the burping. Apparently, the cows will be given seaweed and essential oils. That is probably not too bad; I know my cows would like it. It is better than giving them some new mRNA burp suppressant, but I suppose Big Pharma will get onto that one, soon. As for me, writing time is over, as the cows need milking, and maybe some essential oils if they are good and let-down well.
