How is there potential if Bord Bia does not currently allow anaerobic digesters to use anything other than a completely agricultural product? We are dealing with this for over a year now. How can there be potential if, say, from an Irish Water perspective or whatever, there can be no spreading of any digester product other than grass silage or farmyard slurry on a Bord Bia farm? How then can there be potential in having 300 or 400 digesters around the country?
