Fertilizer Cost
Indoor Pollution
Fertilizer Cost
Synthetic fertilizers are expensive to
purchase and difficult to transport, especially for farmers in rural areas.
The Solution
Biodigesters convert organic waste from food or animals into biogas - a clean cooking fuel - and bioslurry - a safe, organic fertilizer.
By providing a more sanitary alternative to wood and charcoal consumption, we can tackle indoor air pollution and deforestation.
We help low-income families in Haiti transition to biogas technologies.
