VetosEurope, an agritech company based in Lugano, Switzerland, has been honored with four awards from World Business Outlook magazine, recognizing its leadership in sustainable agriculture and climate impact innovation. The accolades include 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.
The awards underscore VetosEurope's pioneering work in developing natural feed supplements that reduce methane emissions while enhancing cattle productivity. Methane, a greenhouse gas 28 times more potent than CO₂, is a significant byproduct of ruminant digestion. VetosEurope's flagship product, Anavrin, has been shown in trials to reduce methane emissions by up to 17.5%, according to studies conducted by Universidad de la República in Montevideo, Uruguay, and by 13% in controlled chamber trials at Wageningen University and Research in the Netherlands. These trials also verified that Anavrin maintains milk yield and improves sustainability.
Beyond methane reduction, Anavrin delivers tangible productivity gains: increased meat yield by 70 grams per day and milk output by 1.5 liters per day. This dual benefit—climate impact plus productivity—positions VetosEurope as a credible innovator in the agritech sector. The UK-based Carbon Trust has formally validated Anavrin's effectiveness, adding international credibility to the product.
VetosEurope's approach is rooted in scientific rigor and practical application. The company collaborates with universities worldwide and has conducted over 20 scientific research projects. Its products are designed to integrate seamlessly into existing feed systems, minimizing adoption barriers for farmers. The company's guiding philosophy, "Inspired by nature, to help nature," reflects its commitment to ecological balance and economic viability.
In Italy, VetosEurope is developing a methane reduction project targeting enteric fermentation emissions. The project, structured under the Verra Verified Carbon Standard (VCS), aims to involve beef and dairy cattle farmers in adopting innovative feeding practices. Farmers participating can contribute to climate change mitigation and potentially receive financial returns linked to verified emission reductions. The project is currently being developed in Uruguay, Italy, and Spain, led by VetosEurope's multidisciplinary team with expertise in livestock trading, animal nutrition, and climate-oriented solutions.
The company's influence extends globally through partnerships and distribution networks across Europe, Latin America, and Asia. VetosEurope's model rests on three pillars: scientific credibility (peer-reviewed research and certifications), global distribution, and a farmer-centric approach. This strategy aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, particularly climate action and responsible consumption.
For policymakers, Anavrin offers a tangible solution to meet emission reduction targets. For farmers, it provides a way to future-proof operations against tightening environmental regulations. As methane reduction becomes a regulatory and market priority, VetosEurope is well-positioned to benefit from the global push toward climate-smart agriculture. The company's scientific credibility and niche expertise provide a strong foundation for growth.
VetosEurope was founded 11 years ago by combining the expertise of a prominent family in the live cattle trade with the technical knowledge of scientists specializing in natural feed supplements. The product has been used by approximately 2.5 million cattle worldwide and is backed by peer-reviewed research. For more information, visit https://vetoseurope.ch/.
