Coop Sweden Teams Up With Volta Greentech For Eco-Friendly Milk

Coop Sweden has announced that it has teamed up with Volta Greentech to test the effectiveness of a feed additive that reduces methane emissions from cows.

The Swedish start-up claims that its algae feed supplement has the potential to reduce methane emission from cows by 60-90% without affecting the quality of milk.

The study is currently underway in collaboration with Coop Sweden at Lantmännen’s farm, Viken, outside Falköping. 

The project involves testing the feed on 24 milk cows and will be completed by November 2020, the retailer added.
