Calon Wen proudly remains Bovaer-free. We are committed to producing milk that is ethical, responsibly farmed, and true to our organic principles. Our approach focuses on working with nature, not against it and maintaining transparency and integrity in everything we do.
Bovaer, a feed additive designed to reduce methane emissions in cows, is not permitted under organic standards. But for us, being Bovaer-free is more than just procedure. It reflects our own ethical commitment to natural, sustainable farming practices. We believe in caring for our cows and managing our land without relying on synthetic additives, staying true to the principles of organic farming.
Being Bovaer-free means we focus on improving pasture quality, maintaining healthy soils, and ensuring our cows are well-fed and well-cared for through natural, organic feed. By managing our herds this way, we support animal welfare, protect biodiversity, and produce quality dairy products that align with our values and as well as yours.
When you choose Calon Wen, you’re choosing dairy that is 100% Bovaer-free, ethically farmed, and produced with care for the environment, the animals, and local communities. It’s part of our ongoing commitment to creating a transparent, sustainable, and responsible food system, from our Welsh farms to your fridge.
