9:30am to 3:30pm, Tuesday 11th June, 2024
Farmers are invited to join RASE and Innovation for Agriculture for a demonstration day to look at options for farm scale anaerobic digestion (AD).
The day will include a talk by Tom Clothier, production director and director of renewable energy at Wyke Farms. Tom will share the reasoning behind building an AD facility at Wyke Farms and his experience of setting up and running an AD facility, including how it fits alongside other aspects of the farm business. This will be followed by a tour of the AD plant and full explanation of the process.
After another presentation and a ploughman’s lunch in the visitor centre, attendees will use their own transport to head to BioFactory (30 minutes journey time), for a talk and tour of the factory, led by CEO Eoin Sharkey. This will include seeing how modular AD systems can be used on farm.
This event is free for farmers to attend, but registration is essential as places are strictly limited. Register via the events page on the RASE website.
