Muscular "super cattle" have been produced through genetic mutation and decades of selective breeding. What's False Muscular "super cattle" are not technically the result of "genetic engineering" (i.e ...

Cows that are genetically modified to produce less methane could have a major impact on climate change, a new study has found. Scientists discovered that methane-producing microbes in cow stomachs are ...

In a remarkable stride toward environmental sustainability, farmers are actively engaged in the practice of selective cow breeding, aiming to reduce methane emissions and thereby reaffirming their ...

The next generation of cows could emit significantly less methane within 20 years, offering a potential boost in the fight against global warming. Professor Mike Coffey, from Scotland's Rural College, ...

A British genetics firm plans to create less-gassy cows — meaning fewer climate-heating emissions. Genus Plc’s breeding program is intended to create “envirocows” with less-gaseous digestive systems, ...

Chinese scientists successfully used cloning technology to combat its dependence on imported dairy cows. The cows were cloned using tissue from a Holstein Friesian known as a super cow, a dairy cow ...

Synomics, an Anglo-Danish biological insights business, has identified a way to reduce emissions within agricultural cattle by selecting the ones that produce less methane genetically. Its scientists ...
