We’ve taken a leaf out of Motu’s book and created some haiku poetry to sum up different aspects of the NZAGRC’s scientific research. Read a selection below and click on them to find out more about the topic!
Efficient farming
Can reduce methane a bit
But more must be done
 
Cow fermentation:
Methanogens love rumen
They make CH4
 
Paddock N2O
Try Quantum Cascade Laser
It’s a game changer
 
Reduce GHGs
More soil carbon please
And less methane too
 
GHGs go up
The temperature increases
What is our future?
 
Carbon in soil
Stops CO2 going up
Need ‘4 per mille’ more…
 
Don’t over promise
A methane inhibitor
A good thing takes time
 
In terms of impact
A vaccine would be awesome
But proving quite hard
