THE SCIENCE

Twenty years of trials. Six hundred and fifty animals. Zero adverse events.

H4Plus is a patent-protected rumen nutrient, developed over more than two decades of trials across dairy, sheep, beef and pig. This page is for farmers. It summarises what the product does on the farm, in plain numbers. The how stays in the lab.

THE SCIENCE, IN A BOTTLE

Don’t blame the cow. Blame the wasted energy.

Methane is made by microbes in the rumen. As they ferment feed they release hydrogen, and other microbes turn it into methane the cow burps out, carrying feed energy with it. Same feed, same bottle. The only question is what the energy becomes.

MethaneSolidsMilk
Conventional

Up to 12 percent of feed energy is belched out as methane. Pure loss to the farmer and to the climate.

MethaneHydrogenSolidsMilk
With a suppressor

Methane falls, but the same energy is released as hydrogen rather than milk. No extra milk, added cost for the farmer.

MethaneSolidsMilk
With H4Plus

The energy is redirected into the animal. More milk and solids, over 80 percent less methane.

Tested for decades. Safe by record.

H4Plus is the product of more than twenty years of work: extensive trials on working dairy and sheep farms, years of independent laboratory validation, and measurement at every milking.

Across the entire programme, not a single adverse event has been recorded. The farmers who have run it keep running it. That is the test that matters.

H4Plus is a uniquely formulated, patent-protected rumen nutrient.
