The subject invention provides compositions and methods for reducing deleterious atmospheric gases and/or precursors thereof using livestock feed additives and/or supplements. In preferred embodiments, a multi-purpose composition comprising one or more beneficial microorganisms and/or one or more microbial growth by-products is applied to livestock animals' feed and/or to a field or pasture where livestock animals graze. In some embodiments, the composition controls methanogenic bacteria. In some embodiments, the composition enhances carbon sequestration in the field or pasture by promoting plant health and/or growth.

A process to remove the glucosinolates of oilseed meals, such as Brassica carinata oilseed meals, is provided. In one embodiment, exogenous myrosinase is used to convert the glucosinolates to volatile isothiocyanate compounds, which can then be removed under conditions of mild heat and negative pressure. In another embodiment, heat and pressure are used to remove glucosinolates from Brassica carinata oilseed. The processed meals may contain less than 80% of their starting levels of glucosinolates and may be suitable for use in various applications, including as animal feeds.

The present invention relates to the use of low dust enzyme granules for post pelleting liquid application (PPLA) or liquid application on other types of non-pelleted feed, such as mash feed. The invention further relates to a process for producing the low dust enzyme granules for liquid application.

A method for enhancing the enzymatic efficiency of an enzyme added to poultry feed for a living subject, comprises adding a cellulose-degrading enzyme to a mobile enzyme sequestration platform (MESP) so as to form an enzyme-MESP complex; adding the enzyme-MESP complex to poultry feed for a living subject; the enzyme efficiency of the cellulose-degrading enzyme of the enzyme-MESP complex after being exposed to a first adverse environment for a first period of time is at least 50% higher than the enzyme efficacy of the cellulose-degrading enzyme independent of the MESP being exposed to the first adverse environment for the first period of time.
