This report distributed worldwide by Reuters and carried by NBC News in US shows how the world is watching New Zealand deal with livestock methane emissions. We're in the spotlight!

A favourable report in this case, noting that New Zealand has pledged to cut biogenic methane emissions by 10% on 2017 levels by 2030 and by up to 47% by 2050, and will become in 2025 the first nation to price agricultural emissions.

The focus of the report is on trials on a Massey University research farm indicating that calves emit up to 20% less methane when they receive a Kowbucha-based probiotic supplement.
