Join us with our guest William Lazarus Applied agricultural economist from the university of Minnesota as we discuss the economics of a digester project. There is a lot of interest in digesters but with high up front cost there’s a lot to consider before jumping into a project. Here we discuss many of the considerations such as revenue sources, funding a project and what can make the difference between a successful project and an unsuccessful one. William Lazarus also has a free to use digester assessment tool, that can give you an initial look at if a digester might be economical on your farm https://extension.psu.edu/on-farm-digester-assessment-tool.
