The landmark partnership will focus on expanding commercial sales of CH4 Global’s Methane Tamer feed supplement in Australia, including the development of new product forms. The companies will also collaborate to validate and introduce Methane Tamer in Japan, where the country's 4 million cattle represent a significant opportunity for the reduction of methane emissions.

Additionally, the companies aim to establish a supply chain for Asparagopsis seaweed production - Methane Tamer's key ingredient - within Asia.

"This partnership with Mitsubishi Corporation marks another significant milestone in our mission to achieve gigaton-scale emissions reductions by 2035,” said CH4 Global co-founder and CEO Steve Meller, in a press release.

“Mitsubishi’s deep experience in agricultural products and services and strong presence across Asian markets makes them an ideal partner as we work to expand the reach of our innovative methane reduction solution," he added.

Under the terms of the agreement, the companies will begin immediate collaboration across multiple workstreams, including regulatory pathway development for the Japanese market, feed formulation work in Australia, and feasibility studies for scaled production facilities in Southeast Asia.
