There was mention in the webinar if there are Dairy Farms that
could be grounds for testing of food additives on GHG emissions; I
have had discussions within the Procurement Division of DGS as to a
pilot program of implementing feed additives to Dairy Farms that
are operated by the California Department of Corrections and
Rehabilitation (CDCR). As an employee of the Environmentally
Preferable Purchasing (EPP) we have been tasked with implementing
procurements  so as to reduce GHG emissions to meet N-19-19
expectations and in doing so have collaboratively worked with
CalRecycle on purchase of compostable paper products (food
containers). I feel that we too can collaboratively work with CARB
and CDCR on a pilot program with exemptions for purchasing
commercially available seaweed additives (some products available
in Australia, Great Britain, and China) for the testing of
reductions of Methane in Enteric fermentation and provide further
data to UC Davis in their research endeavors.
