Project Background
The focus of this project will be to demonstrate a reduction in pathogen and nutrient transport to surface water and a reduced risk of herd to herd transmission of pathogens between farms that participate in a community based anaerobic digester with post AD pasteurization. A unique aspect of this project is that we will be able to obtain information on water quality and pathogen levels at individual farms before and after the adoption of the community AD.
