Feasibility Study for the Production of Biogas and Organic Fertiliser in the Agriculture & Food Management Sectors in Samoa

This report was prepared by Murray Ward for the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation. The use of biodigesters in Samoa and other Pacific Islands has so far been limited to just small demonstrations, mostly involving piggeries. However, Samoa has abundant potential feedstock resource for biodigesters, so the possibility to produce nationally significant amounts of bioenergy in distributed systems at farms, villages and in plantation estates.
