Bovaer is the trademark for dsm-firmenich’s 3-nitrooxypropanol (3-NOP), a specialty feed additive developed to reduce enteric methane emissions from ruminant livestock. The molecule inhibits a key enzyme in the final step of methanogenesis in the rumen, lowering methane formation in dairy and beef production systems.
Positioned at the intersection of animal nutrition and climate mitigation, Bovaer reflects the chemical industry’s role in agricultural sustainability solutions. It is formulated for inclusion in commercial feed or on-farm rations and is supplied through partnerships across the feed supply chain. The product is part of dsm-firmenich’s animal nutrition portfolio and is used in programs aimed at quantifying and managing greenhouse-gas footprints in livestock value chains.
