VetosEurope Wins Four Major Awards for Sustainable Cattle Farming Innovations

VetosEurope, an agritech company headquartered in Lugano, Switzerland, has been honored with four prestigious awards from World Business Outlook magazine, recognizing its pioneering work in sustainable cattle farming. The accolades—Best AgriTech Innovation & Climate Impact Innovation Award Europe 2026, Most Sustainable Agriculture Solution of the Year Europe 2026, Best Scientific Research & Development Excellence Award Europe 2026, and Outstanding Sustainable Livestock Farming Solution Europe 2026—highlight the company's role in bridging science, commerce, and climate responsibility.

Founded over a decade ago, VetosEurope emerged from the global live-cattle trade with a vision to develop solutions that are both economically viable and environmentally sound. By collaborating with universities worldwide, the company created feed additives that mirror natural compounds, enabling farmers to improve yields without compromising ecological balance. This philosophy, "Inspired by nature, to help nature," has driven the company's research and development, leading to its flagship product, Anavrin.

Anavrin is a methane-inhibiting feed supplement designed to reduce enteric fermentation in ruminants—a major source of methane, a greenhouse gas 28 times more potent than carbon dioxide. Independent trials at the Universidad de la República in Montevideo, Uruguay, and Wageningen University and Research in the Netherlands have confirmed its efficacy. The Uruguayan studies showed methane reductions of up to 17.5%, while Wageningen's controlled chamber trials reported a 13% cut in methane production and a 16.3% decrease in methane intensity. These findings have been further validated by the UK-based Carbon Trust, lending international credibility to Anavrin's climate impact.

Beyond environmental benefits, Anavrin also enhances productivity, increasing meat yield by 70 grams per day and milk output by 1.5 liters per day. This dual advantage—climate impact and productivity—positions VetosEurope as a competitive force in the agritech sector. Carloalberto Ghizzoni, Partner & CEO of VetosEurope, expressed gratitude for the awards, stating, "These accolades validate our commitment to reshaping global agriculture. Our science-backed, data-driven methodology is driving ecological resilience, and we share these honors with our dedicated scientific teams and partners."

The company is currently developing a methane reduction project in Italy, structured under the Verra Verified Carbon Standard (VCS), which will allow farmers to adopt innovative feeding practices, contribute to climate mitigation, and potentially earn financial returns from verified emission reductions. Similar projects are being developed in Uruguay and Spain, led by VetosEurope's multidisciplinary team with expertise in livestock trading, animal nutrition, and climate solutions.

VetosEurope's influence extends globally through partnerships and distribution networks across Europe, Latin America, and Asia. Its model rests on scientific credibility, global reach, and a farmer-centric approach that ensures seamless integration into existing feed systems. The company's work aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly those addressing climate action and responsible consumption. As methane reduction becomes a regulatory and market priority, VetosEurope's solutions like Anavrin are well-positioned to become mainstream.

Shankar Shivaprasad, Managing Director of World Business Outlook, praised VetosEurope for bridging rigorous research and scalable climate impact. "Their solutions address critical agricultural pain points—reducing livestock emissions, enhancing soil health, and pioneering AgriTech frameworks that combat climate change," he said. "Their forward-thinking leadership serves as an industry blueprint for sustainable food production."
