Kansas Beef Takes The Field At Sporting KC

Beef made its debut on the soccer field June 28, with the Kansas Beef Council (KBC) hosting a booth for the first time at a Sporting Kansas City game that had more than 17,000 fans in attendance. Located near the entrance of the stadium, almost 75% of those fans walked past the booth, where KBC brought energy and education.

Fans had the opportunity to spin a prize wheel to win beef swag and kick a soccer ball measured by a radar gun to compete for the day’s fastest kick. While the kids played, parents also learned how beef powers athletic performance, especially for young athletes.

Video: Measuring Methane Emissions From Cattle with Unique Technologies

PhD Student Madison Kindberg, and Air Quality Specialist and Professor, Dr. Frank Mitloehner explain the unique Cattle Pen Enclosures and how they will capture emissions from cattle using state of the art technology. The enclosures are well equipped with one-way airflow fans, smart scales, and smart feeds that can tell you what an animal ate, when they ate and how much they ate. All enclosures are connected to one mobile air quality lab which uses gas monitors and analyzers to collect precision data. This data will be used to determine if an early-life methane reducing bolus can reduce emissions from cattle long-term.
