The European farming is facing a great challenge: How to maintain domestic agricultural production while cutting down greenhouse gas emissions? Agriculture accounts for about 10% of total greenhouse gas emissions at European level. A significant proportion of these (around 54%) is methane, most of which is produced by rumination and belching by cattle. In the EU area there are around 77 million cows on 1.8 million cattle farms. Each of these is a tiny point source of highly dilute methane, but the combined contribution reaches to total 158 MT CO2eq. of methane emissions annually. The EU-funded project CANMILK (Grant agreement no. 101069491) is developing an innovative technology based on non-thermal plasma. This will help the cattle farms to cut down methane emissions and achieve carbon neutrality by 2035.
