Study finds dairy farm slurry stores' methane emissions 5x official figures, potential £400m annual savings via biogas conversion.

A study by the University of East Anglia and the International Fugitive Emissions Abatement Association reveals that methane emissions from dairy farm slurry stores might be up to five times higher than official figures. This highlights the potential for converting these emissions into biogas, offering significant savings—over £400 million annually in the UK. The study recommends increased support for methane capture technologies and grants for slurry management to mitigate emissions.
