According to reports the August issue of European agriculture, the Agriculture Department wants to revalue Catalonia waste from pig farms. Department of Agriculture, Food and Rural (DAR) is finalizing a plan biodigestion slurry which is part of the Climate Change Strategy. The aim is twofold: to begin to take place from 2009 and get it in 2012 Catalonia has a treatment capacity of 1,350,000 cubic meters of slurry.

According to the Minister of industry, Joaquim Llena, Catalan livestock sector is the European leader in many aspects, but the high stocking density can be a weakness if not properly managed. Therefore believes that''full we have to understand that well-managed manure is a resource and not a waste. That is, an innovative approach connected a la adopción de nuevas tecnologías es, por lo tanto, un aspecto clave para convertir problemas en oportunidades''.

Estrategias a medida

El plan pretende crear una red de infraestructuras para tratar los purines, bien a través de plantas de biogás, de compotaje o de procesos biológicos. La estrategia de tratamiento será diferente en cada zona, puesto que habrá que adaptarse a las características específicas de cada territorio.

En este sentido, los primeros pasos de este plan han ido encaminados a identificar y localizar las zonas prioritarias de Cataluña y a buscar la complicidad abosulta del sector ganadero para unir esfuerzos en una misma dirección.

Con above, it is intended to promote good management of manure, so take advantage as much as possible as fertilizer and also imply a business opportunity for farmers.

Although from the DAR is studying the possibility of developing this plan through the EU LIFE program, the administration makes it clear that creating the infrastructure network is needed economic cooperation of both public and private sector. Biogas production



There are currently three biogas plants in Catalonia, all located in the province of Lleida: two Juneda Cogeneration and biogas Vilasana. Taken together, generate four megawatts and treat about 200,000 cubic meters of slurry.

The objectives of the Department of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs in 2012 are getting between 15 and 20 megawatts, 1,350,000 meters cubic treat manure and operate between 20 and 30 biogas plants.
