Haiku

We’ve taken a leaf out of Motu’s book and created some haiku poetry to sum up different aspects of the NZAGRC’s scientific research. Read a selection below and click on them to find out more about the topic!

Twenty three percent:

Livestock directly adds this

To current warming

Farming and climate

Bringing countries together

In the G-R-A

Cow fermentation:

Methanogens love rumen

They make CH₄

Efficient farming

Can reduce methane a bit

But more must be done

Paddock N₂O

Try Quantum Cascade Laser

It’s a game changer

Reduce GHGs

More soil carbon please

And less methane too

GHGs go up

The temperature increases

What is our future?

Carbon in soil

Stops CO₂ going up

Need ‘4 per mille’ more…

Don’t over promise

A methane inhibitor

A good thing takes time

In terms of impact

A vaccine would be awesome

But proving quite hard
