Farming
Benefits to Farming
High quality feedstocks are vital to an efficient and productive AD plant and our expert farming team prides itself on building and nurturing good relationships with our growers, founded on trust and best practice, so that feedstocks of optimum quality are produced.
Anaerobic Digestion also provides numerous benefits to the farming community. It allows farmers to grow valuable break crops and by providing another income stream for growers it takes the volatility out of farming. It also encourages sustainable crop rotation which has numerous benefits from weed suppression to pest control to soil conditioning. This in turn means improved and more profitable crop yields in future years.
Biology and Engineering Services
Service Offering
Future Biogas with their joint venture Fern Farming offers full AD biology support, training, bespoke laboratory testing services and data interpretation. We have developed T16 – an additive for increased nutrient and bio-availability – which currently supports the consistent production of 9,000 m3 of biogas an hour across an number of AD plants in the UK.
In addition to this our operations and engineering teams now offer technical assistance to third parties operating biogas plants.
We Care
As a company producing green energy we take our commitment to the environment, our people and the wider community very seriously.
Biodiversity
We believe that biodiversity on and around all of our plans should be higher than before the site was developed. Each of our plants has a policy of positive biodiversity management and by planting native species we work to encourage birds, bees and wildlife key to the area.
Our People
We place great importance on training and equipping our people for the future. We aim to add to the skill sets of all our operators and engineers with a combination of targeted training and regular meetings to share best practice.
Giving
We believe it is important to support others that are doing good in the wider community, and to that end we have focused on a number of charities including, Veterans for Life, Cardiac Risk in the Young and Moth in a China Shop
