California relies on FDA\u2019s federal review and evaluation process for these new and novel products that have demonstrated progress toward climate goals. Elanco Animal Health\u2019s Bovaer\u00ae 10 is intended for the reduction of methane emissions in lactating dairy cattle and one of the first of these innovative products that has undergone FDA review for safety and efficacy. This provides agriculture an additional tool to be part of the overall methane reduction strategy. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On October 3, CDFA\u2019s Feed Inspection Advisory Board and its Technical Advisory Subcommittee met to discuss Elanco\u2019s Bovaer 10.

After conducting a review of submitted information and materials, CDFA has no current objection to the sale or use of Bovaer 10 in California, provided it adheres to California-specific labeling requirements, it is used in accordance with its labeling,\u00a0and that CDFA and FDA continue to have no questions or public health concerns regarding its safety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>California\u2019s climate goals include the reduction of methane emissions to 40% below 2013 levels by 2030, as codified in SB 1383 (Lara, 2016).
