GreenFeed – Large Animals
The large animal GreenFeed is a turnkey system designed to measure gas fluxes of methane (CH4), Carbon Dioxide (CO2), and optionally, Oxygen (O2), Hydrogen (H2) and Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) from individual animals. It aggregates emissions data from individual animals and determine herd averages. The system is configured to offer a small amount of pelletized bait attractant to entice the animals to visit multiple times per day. The gas emissions data is logged then automatically processed allowing the user to easily access a summarized report of calculated fluxes. This unit requires a pelletized feed (< 7 mm in diameter) to be used. Any type of pelletized feed can be used, with some applications using pelletized grass and alfalfa, and others using a concentrate mix. Typically, the amount of bait attractant used is about 1-1.5 kg per animal per day, however in some installations as little as 200 grams per animal per day. In other applications animals are given as much as 8 kg per animal per day. The amount of feed used is uniquely configurable for each animal. In normal operating conditions, about 20 animals per day can be measured per GreenFeed, however this varies depending on the animals, the size of the pen or pasture, the quantity of feed, and the objectives.

Gas Measurement Platform
The gas measurement platform is a system that allows for the continuous measurements of CH4, CO2, and optionally O2, H2, and H2S gas concentrations. It is flexible to log other sensor data and also to automatically control separate devices. The data is logged to the cloud, permanently archived and accessible from any location with an Internet connection. The Gas Measurement platform can also be used with the auto-calibration option and also be equipped with automated solenoids to allow periodic measurement of background levels of gases. Features:
