Banas Dairy Cuts 30% Methane with AI Climate Tech
Sourse: dairynews.today
Banas Dairy has launched the world's largest methane reduction program in partnership with eVerse.AI, aiming to cut 30% of emissions from 3 million cattle with AI climate technology.
Banas Dairy, Asia’s largest dairy cooperative, has embarked on an ambitious journey to lead the global dairy sector in climate action through its groundbreaking Banas Methane Management Program (BMMP). This initiative, under the visionary leadership of Chairman Shankar Chaudhary, targets a significant reduction in methane emissions by leveraging cutting-edge technology developed by eVerse.AI. The partnership with eVerse.AI utilizes AI-driven platforms like ConnectedCow and GreenCow digital MRV systems, which are designed to cut emissions from 3 million livestock by 30% annually.
The program integrates natural plant-derived feed additives with the National Dairy Development Board’s Ration Balancing Program, enhancing both sustainability and productivity by improving milk yield by 10-12%. This effort not only addresses urgent environmental challenges—since methane is 80 times more potent than CO2—but also positions Banas Dairy as a leader in sustainable agriculture practices. The BMMP stands out as the world’s largest methane reduction initiative in the dairy sector, supported by proven methods from eVerse.AI's Maharashtra Methane Mission. This collaboration highlights India’s role in driving global change through innovative, sustainable solutions, potentially setting a widespread standard for environmental responsibility in agriculture.

Rethinking Global Milk Production Figures: A Critical Perspective
In the recent article “The Dairy Map of the World 2025: Who Feeds the Planet?”, it was noted that global milk production reached around 950 million tons in 2024, with India and Pakistan driving much of the 3% growth in Asia. At the same time, global dairy trade remains uneven: while some countries expand their export positions, others remain focused on domestic consumption.
