Legal Insurrection by Leslie Eastman 11/6/2025
Bovaer allegedly reduces cattle methane emissions. It may be true in the sense that dead cows can’t fart.Legal Insurrection readers may recall that in late 2024, I reported on Bovaer, an anti-methane additive now being mixed with cattle feed in Europe.
Its makers, Elanco Animal Health, claim the ingredient powder used in feed will reduce methane emissions from dairy cattle by almost 30% and works by suppressing a cow’s ability to produce methane during digestion.
People are now more clearly recognizing that carbon dioxide (CO2) is a life-essential gas and methane is a critical part of the finely tuned biogenic carbon cycle. Consumers are also alarmed by the introduction of a supplement to animals, with no consideration given to the long-term effects of humans consuming meat and dairy products from animals that eat the additives.
There are now reports that from Denmark of cows collapsing and suffering illness after eating Bovaer, which is now legally required for many farms in Denmark as part of its national climate policy. Some farmers claim their cattle experienced severe symptoms after eating the additive-infused feed, including collapse, lethargy, reduced feed intake, fever, diarrhea, miscarriages, and significant drops in milk production.
There are also accounts of some animals recovering when Bovaer was discontinued but relapsing when forced to resume eating the additive-infused feed.
