Manure digesters are also known as Anaerobic Digesters (AD). The study cost over $100,000 and took three years to complete. We thank the many funders who contributed to the study. We also thank the engineers and other dedicated professionals who worked with us. And we should add that committee members and local farmers contributed over 1000 hours of volunteer time to manage the study. The reports total over 175 pages, in 17 files.
