Can Polyphenols Help Livestock Become Part of the Climate Solution?
Can polyphenols help reduce methane emissions from ruminants without compromising animal health and food quality? This question will be addressed at Polyphenols Applications 2026 by Dr. Maria Hayes, from the Teagasc Food Research Centre, Ireland.
She will present:
Reducing Methane Emissions with Polyphenols: New Strategies for Sustainable Animal Production
Her lecture will focus on the potential of seaweed extracts rich in polyphenols and other bioactives to reduce methane emissions from cows and sheep, based on work carried out within the SeaSolutions project.
The challenge is strategic: how can we reduce greenhouse gas emissions from ruminant production while maintaining animal performance, health, and the quality of milk and meat?
This talk brings an important agricultural and sustainability dimension to Polyphenols Applications 2026, showing how polyphenol research can move beyond human nutrition and contribute to future food systems.
