Mootral: Saving the climate, one cow at a time
Mootral produces a natural animal feed supplement that significantly reduces methane emissions from ruminants – animals that chew their cud, like sheep and cattle – and is the result of extensive research and development by the Swiss AgriTech startup.
The company has sought to protect its technology internationally through the Patent Cooperation Treaty.
The article explains that “a patented innovation is an attractive commercial proposition and with a patent a company can market its innovation more effectively.
