Safflower Township turns aquaculture manure into clean energy

Aquaculture and new energy seem to have nothing to do with each other, but today, with the construction of a new countryside and advocating circular economy, people in Honghua Township, Tancheng County, Shandong Province are experimenting with the surprise that science and technology brings to life-making the manure formed by farming into clean energy.

"originally, I didn't plan to raise pigs. Yard farming is too dirty and pollutes the environment! Now that the biogas digester has been built in the house, everything has been solved! " Standing in front of his new villa building, Li Sixiang, an old pig farmer in Suntang Village, said excitedly, "I plan to buy two more old sows before wheat mouth. On the one hand, I can increase my income, and on the other hand, I can produce enough biogas. You don't have to spend a penny on boiling water and cooking lighting!"

How much does it cost for farmers to build a biogas digester? On this topic, the secretary of the Huanggouya village branch of the township asked Youzhang to know the roots. he said: because there are special personnel to calculate the ingredients and construction, now the cost of building a biogas digester is only 1,200 to 300 yuan. The superior subsidizes 600 yuan to each household who applies for the construction of biogas, even buying biogas stoves and lamps and lanterns together, the family investment is less than 1000 yuan, and it is cost-effective to invest for many years. Now 80 to 90 percent of the farmers in their village use biogas. The popularity of biogas has brought spring to rural courtyard farming. Yang Zhide, a professional cattle farmer in Suntang Village, told me happily that his family now has six cattle and that selling cow dung to the biogas digester alone can increase income by more than 2000 yuan a year.

Build Honghua Township into one of the circular economic demonstration townships with the most new rural characteristics in southern Shandong. "
