£150k funding for AD investigation
RESEARCHERS at Harper Adams University have recently been awarded more than £150,000 from DEFRA to fund a project that will investigate anaerobic digestion as an on-farm method for the containment and the disposal of fallen livestock. The work will look at the anaerobic digestion of porcine carcase material and is a continuation of research previously conducted at the university. Starting late spring, the project is anticipated to take 18 months to complete and will be conducted by a post-doctoral researcher under the supervision of a project team led by Principal Lecturer and Head of
