The methane
problem is
solved.

H4Plus™ is a patented rumen nutrient that eliminates 80–100% of enteric methane while increasing farm revenue by 62%. The world's first livestock solution that makes farmers richer while eliminating emissions.

Why every competitor fails

Every solution
sells farmers
a cost.

Bovaer costs $87 per cow per year and delivers zero productivity gain. Without an economic return, farmers have no reason to adopt it. That's why near-zero uptake followed billions in R&D, FDA approval, and USDA subsidies. The problem isn't the science. It's the economics.

The farmer's ROI

A US dairy farmer pays $75/year for H4Plus™. Their milk revenue increases by 62% per cow per day at a cost of $0.21/day. The investment pays back inside the first month. This is not a compliance cost — it is a profit centre. That's why the sales motion closes on ROI, not regulation.

Bovaer — $87/head, zero productivity
H4Plus™ — $2.60/head, +62% revenue
Herbi4.com · Digital infrastructure

A digital twin of
every enrolled farm.
Carbon credits on delivery.

The farmer registers their farm on Herbi4.com. The platform builds a digital twin — calculating exact product quantities, dosing schedules, and reorder frequency. Product ships with a QR code. The farmer scans it. Verified carbon credits are generated automatically and appear in their dashboard, ready to sell. Zero complexity. Maximum compliance data.

Carbon sales via linked $HERBI4 platform — separate entity, 10% commission to Herbi4. No competitor has an integrated product + MRV + carbon platform.

Two revenue streams.
One makes us a product company.
One makes us a platform.

Primary · Recurring annual
Revenue Stream 1: Product Sales
$75 dairy / $60 beef

Direct via Herbi4.com + appointed US distributors. Annual per-head recurring. Farmer renews because economics demand it, not regulation.

· US via GRAS status — sell today, no new approval needed
· UK, EU, Brazil — approved, immediate commercial availability
· Platform handles orders, MRV, reorder scheduling automatically
· Target: 354K animals enrolled by end 2027
Secondary · Zero cost to Herbi4
Revenue Stream 2: Carbon Commission
10% commission

10% of all carbon credits sold via the linked $HERBI4 platform (separate entity). ~1.75t CO₂e per cow per year × $12–35/tonne. Zero incremental cost to Herbi4. Pure upside not in base case.

· Automatic — triggered by farmer's QR scan
· Verra VM0041 methodology pending registration
· CSRD (EU mandatory Scope 3 reporting) compliance instrument for EU food brands
· Adds $930K in 2027, growing to $61M by 2030
