Farmers have been able to see if anaerobic digestion (AD) is the right option for them at The Energy Now Expo in Malvern this week.
The free service from Anaerobic Digestion and Biogas Association (ADBA) will give farmers, growers and land managers a better understanding of what is involved, giving them the confidence to invest the time and money needed to develop a project proposal for funding.
Farm-based AD presents an opportunity for UK farmers, growers and land managers to improve yields, create a new income stream, and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by generating their own renewable energy and biofertilisers.
President of the National Farmers Union and ADBA board member Gwyn Jones said: “AD is a pivotal mechanism in supporting climate smart farming but the viability of AD for a particular business or site is a complex equation and so it’s important that people receive good quality initial advice to help assess its feasibility.
