compared to synthetic fertilizers.
 ECONOMIC BENEFITS
 Can reduce farm costs for animal bedding and fertilizer and
generate new revenue streams.
 A driver for economic growth and offer local jobs in

for non-renewable, carbon-intensive fossil fuels
 Biogas supports distributed generation of energy, which
means lower transmission and transportation costs.
