We’re gearing up to take a quantum leap forward as we double our lab space to usher in a new era of possibilities.

This expansion is a giant leap forward in our commitment to innovation. More space means more room for cutting-edge research, advancing our technologies, and an intensified focus on generating and analyzing transformative data to unlock new insights to further optimize our treatment processes.

We are proud to redefine what's possible in the realm of sustainable food production. Learn how you can be part of the journey by connecting with one of our ManureExperts^TM today!  

Join our partners at 3Degrees on their recent exploration into the heart of sustainable agriculture! In this exclusive behind-the-scenes look, John Bourne, their Director of Agriculture, delves into innovative methane reduction practices on two Washington State dairy farms, including one equipped with the LWR First Wave system.

Discover how these farms are not just transforming the agricultural landscape but also making a direct impact on the carbon footprints of food and beverage manufacturers.

Manure treatment has emerged as a verifiable solution to tackle emissions at the farm level. If you're ready to cultivate a greener future, connect with us after you watch the video below:  

The State of California's Water Efficiency and Enhancement Program (SWEEP) provides financial assistance in the form of grants to implement irrigation systems that reduce greenhouse gases and save water on California agricultural operations. Eligible projects include the installation of renewable energy to reduce on-farm water use and energy!

Last month I referenced an article by Nutrien’s eKonomics that talked about understanding the carbon cycle and how organic matter and nutrients are recycled. This month I wanted to expand on this after multiple conversations in the last month where people are asking how we measure the benefits of carbon in manure.

To be fully transparent, this is no easy feat. Carbon makes up a large percentage of organic matter and the accumulation of organic matter is a slow process that happens over time.

Manure is high in organic matter and by adding manure to your soils, you help increase the organic matter in your soil slowly over time.  This ultimately helps increase nutrient availability and carbon sequestration.

For net sequestration to occur, you need to be adding more carbon to the soil than is being released back into the atmosphere. While it's a great source of organic matter, manure can be expensive to haul and apply. This is why we tend to see a build up in fields close to the manure supply while further away land struggles to build soil organic matter.

By processing manure, you can extract the organic matter out of the liquid fraction to create a much lower volume of solid product that contains nearly all of the organic matter of the liquid manure. By hauling less product, with close to the same amount of organic matter you can start to manage your carbon on farm and maximize the return on the carbon in your manure.

We're thrilled to have been invited by the UFA Cooperative to be part of their Regional Innovation Showcase in Kitscoty, Alberta. We were excited to share insights and explore collaborative opportunities with Alberta's vibrant agricultural community as we help shape the future of sustainable practices in the heart of Canadian beef country. 

Our Innovation Center has recently shipped two more systems — one to Colorado and another to the United Kingdom. We're pleased to share our involvement in some of the most exciting biogas projects on the planet! Stay tuned for updates as these projects progress! 

At LWR, we're not just about managing liquid manure; we're harnessing our expertise to transform these liquids into high-value products for the circular economy. Our treatment process not only addresses waste management but it is directly contributing to a sustainable energy future.

Last month we were invited to be an integral part of the Anaerobic Digestion on the Farm Conference hosted by EPA Region 7 (Midwest), Iowa State University, and the University of Iowa. The event showcased cutting-edge insights into the world of anaerobic digestion, offering a platform for stakeholders, farmers, and industry leaders to exchange ideas and solutions.

Last week we gathered around our tables laden with delicious food while surrounded by some of our most cherished people. In the spirit of gratitude, we want to extend our heartfelt appreciation to each member of our incredible community as we celebrate the shared values of sustainability and innovation that bind us together.

Together, as stewards of sustainability, we are cultivating a world where every drop counts. Your indispensable role in our collective journey is not only valued but crucial to the meaningful strides we continue to make. Happy Thanksgiving from our table to yours.

Danone and the Global Methane Hub join forces together to accelerate innovation in methane reduction. This new partnership is aimed to reduce methane emissions and drive scalable solutions in farming.
