The results of the research on the application of increased rates of digestate were shared at a farm in Khmelnytskyi.

The enterprise "Ukraine-2001" in Khmelnytskyi processes 35 thousand hectares of land in the Khmelnytskyi region, has its own pig farming and dairy cattle. Accordingly, a fairly large amount of animal and crop waste is generated annually. They are processed at their own biogas plant, obtaining biogas and digestate. The latter product is applied to their own fields. This was reported in the article "Digestate: technology of application, norms and effect on the example of the farm 'Ukraine-2001'" on SuperAgronom.com by Oleksandr Kaminskyi, the executive director of the farm. Both types of digestate are used—both liquid and solid. There are specific features in the application of digestate at the farm. In particular, there are discrepancies in the application rates on fields closer to the pumping stations and those that are more distant. Specialists have studied which rates are optimal for crop growth and which are critically high and may negatively affect their normal development. ...
