Abstract

Two main biogas prorammes have been developed in Zimbabwe, one for the development of biogas at the individual household level (40 digesters) and the other for institutional users like schools and rural community centres (10 digesters). The funding of these digesters is provided by the users themselves and the Government provides the technical advice. In the future four projects are considered: (1) a biogas promoter will work in rural areas from village to village to inform leaders and teach the people; (2) rural resettlement schemes based on dairy farming are planned to integrate biogas production; (3) commercial farmers will get technical advices to build digesters for their workers; finally (4) two industries have been identified as candidates for biomethanation projects: a food-processing industry and a brewery.
