Organic farming

• No chemical/syntetical fertilizer

• No pesticides

Organic farming systems

• Crop rotation • Ruminant animals• Biological nitrification • Soil structure

Cow manure slurry 2011 Foss farm

Cow manure slurry

• -Great NH3- emission after spreading at fields• -Difficult to utilize in high populated area• -Demage soil structure• -Conserve weed seeds and patogen spores• -Impossible to spread exactly• +Cost efficent way to spread on fields

Process line Foss biolab

Foss biolab • Started 2007• 2010- indoors• 2011 pilot process line

for cow manure

• Scientific works• Test lab for full scale full

scale biogas plants• Education

Solid/fibrous fraction

• Vermicomposting• Improve soil structure• Remove stinky smell• Increase microbial activity• Decrease weed seeds

germination• Remove patogen

organism• Stabilize carbon fraction

Organic matter in the soil-soil fertility

• Water houshold• Microbial activity• Nutrition exchange capasity• Aggregat building/soil structure• Heat absorption• Soil erosion resistance• Carbon immobilization

Biogas-Foss farm

• Bioenergy central• Hot water for 32 houses

need 384 000kWh• 86 000kWh energy from

biogas• Wood chips for rest

energy demand• Start up 2012-2013

Foss Housing AreaCa: 20 housing

Housing reaCa: 12 boenheter

JPE/2011

Liquid nitrified fertilizer• No N- emission• No N2O-emission• No smell• Spreading indors or outdoors

even on sunny days• No residues on leaves• No patogens• No weeds• Easy to spread exactly• Also as leaf fertilizer• Available directly as plant
