The purpose of this project is to investigate to what extent substances in algae inhibit microbial methane formation in cows. Several substances, so-called bioactive substances, in red, green and brown algae, have a significant methane reducing effect. These are promising results but in order to reach a commercial product with efficient methane-reducing effects, knowledge of the effect on the cows' microflora by these substances is needed. This study will use algae substances, which in already funded projects have been identified to give effects when fed to cows, and further investigate the impact on these on the rumen microbial community. In addition we aim to investigate the possibility of optimizing the substances in algae through a more controlled cultivation. Reduced methane production will strengthen the ompetitiveness of the dairy and also beef industry.
Syftet med detta projekt är att undersöka i vilken omfattning substanser i alger hämmar mikrobiell metanproduktion i kor. Flera substanser, s.k. bioaktiva substanser, i röda, gröna och bruna alger har en signifikant metanreducerande effekt. Detta är lovande resultat och för att kunna ta fram ett effektivt kommersiellt metanreducerande preparat behövs kunskap om effekten på kornas mikroflora av dessa substanser. Denna studie planerar att nyttja resultat från redan finansierade studier där effekten av utfordring av alger på ko-nivå identifieras. Utifrån dessa studier vill vi i detta projekt undersöka olika bioaktiva substanser och deras inverkan på mikroorganismerna i vommen och om det går att optimera innehållet av substanserna i algerna genom en mer kontrollerad odling. En minskad metanproduktion kommer kunna stärka konkurrenskraften inom mjölk-, men även köttbranschen.

The sensory attributes of the raw milk are of major importance for the quality of the resulting dairy products. Since the early 90’ies, the so-called “blueberry off-flavour” has caused severe economic consequences for affected dairy farmers. The mechanism behind is still unclear, although forages …

A cornerstone of the Swedish Food Strategy is trust in Swedish food production. Yet each year Swedish farmers and food processors lose both money and trust due to food fraud, especially for non-Swedish meat relabelled as Swedish. Most fraud remains undetected.
