<div>Dear Mr. Tumwesige,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>just chop up the material and feed it into the biogas plant. Everything except the lignin would be turned into biogas. We regularly use green leaves as feedstock. The midribs and veins accumulated in the biogas plant as undigested debris are removed by opening a drain valve at the bottom of the biogas plant. </div>

These 3 crops generate about 2 tons of waste per week, though other crops have a small waste content. I have attached pictures of the generated waste. The idea is to produce<br>biogas from this waste. I have not dealt with floriculture waste, I will be glad to get your advise.<br>
