What’s the opportunity?
On-farm biogas systems use anaerobic digestion (AD) to recycle livestock manure and crop residue. This process produces biogas, which creates environmental and business opportunities for the farm.
RECOVER
AD recovers valuable resources from organic matter, transforming waste into green energy and value-added products.
REUSE
AD enables reuse of nutrients and even animal bedding, reducing a farm’s environmental footprint and input costs.
RENEW
AD creates a renewable source of energy (heat, electricity and natural gas) that can be used on-farm or sold to utilities to diversify a farm’s income.
We’re here to help.
