- philipkglass 8y agoThe active anti-methane compound from seaweed is likely bromoform: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10811-016-0830-7 https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10811-016-0830-7 It would be a cheap food supplement since the methane inhibition required only about 2% seaweed in cattle food, which in turn implies a bromoform feed content of only about 35 parts per million. Though no doubt some farmers would prefer to be able to say that they add seaweed rather than a particular chemical to their cattle feed.
