CBG Feedstock Harvesting Plan

Why Daily Harvesting is Not Practical – Plan for Strategic Silage Buffers!

In practical agriculture, daily harvesting is often not feasible due to:

Seasonal climatic challenges (rain, winter dormancy)
Local cultural & social responsibilities
Limited labor availability during festivals or peak seasons

Proposed Napier Harvesting Cycle:

March (Post-winter)
June (Pre-monsoon)
September (Post-monsoon)
November (Pre-winter)

Example: For a 5 TPD CBG plant needing ~100 tons/day:

Annual feedstock: 35,000 tons
Per cycle: ~8,750 tons in 30 days
Daily harvest required during cycle: ~300 tons

Benefits of Strategic Silage Buffering:

Uniform quality of feedstock – ensures steady biogas yield
Optimal use of labor, tractors, and harvesters
Weather-proof – no disruption due to rain or winter
24/7 uninterrupted CBG plant operation

Recommended Harvesting Models: JF 1150 and JF 1600

Advice for CBG Plant Owners: Don’t invest in low-capacity daily harvesters. Choose high-capacity machines that exceed daily needs so you can finish 3-month harvests within 30 days – on time, every time.

CBG from Napier Grass – Insights, Studies & Field Reports

CBG from Napier Grass – Research Highlights & Field Experience

Welcome to our knowledge portal on Napier grass as a strategic energy crop for Compressed Biogas (CBG) plants. This page summarizes key findings, field trials, BMP test reports, and insights shared on LinkedIn to promote scientific and scalable adoption of Napier-based feedstock models.

🔬 BMP Test Report Summary

        ✅ BMP Result: 304.73 Nml/g VS  
        ✅ Sample: Silaged Napier (35% DM, cut size <4mm, no slurry pretreatment)  
        ✅ Lab: UPL University, Ankleshwar  
        ✅ Compared to: Close to maize silage levels (Germany standard)
      

This result confirms Napier as a high-yield feedstock option for Indian CBG plants, particularly when harvested and silaged optimally.

📌 Key Highlights from Our LinkedIn Posts:

Importance of cut size <4mm for better gas extraction
Strategic silage buffer planning (120 days/year model)
Effectiveness of Mountain Silage & Silopack storage for remote locations
Comparison of F1 vs F2 Napier seed quality for consistent yields
Feeding Napier with 35%+ DM increases plant output and fermentation health
Low sulfur Napier contributes to lower H₂S levels in raw biogas

Introduction to Napier Grass & Silage for CBG

Introduction to Napier Grass & Its Role in CBG Feedstock Systems

Super Napier grass is widely cultivated across India and traditionally used as animal fodder, especially during winter months. Some progressive farmers have also adopted silage-making practices for improved digestion in ruminants and biogas digesters.

We provide end-to-end solutions for harvesting, cutting, and silaging Napier grass, with installations across hundreds of locations in India.

Popular Napier Names: King Grass, Sudanese Grass, Elephant Grass, Super Bullet, CO-4, CO-5, and Brazil’s high-yield variety Capia Su (up to 300 tons/acre/year).

🔍 Importance of Growth Age & Dry Matter

The key to good yield is not just the variety but the harvest maturity and dry matter content:

Young Napier (50–65 days): 15–22% DM, only 45–65 kg Bio-CNG per ton
Mature Napier (90–110 days): 32–36% DM, yields 85–95 kg Bio-CNG per ton

Note: Cutting grass too frequently increases water content, reducing usable solid content and digestor efficiency.

🌾 Myths About Harvesting Frequency

There's a misconception that harvesting every 60 days (6 times/year) yields more than 90-day intervals (4 times/year). In truth:

Total annual solid output remains similar.
Frequent cuts add water, not biomass.
Older Napier reduces digester volume requirement by 2x.

📦 Importance of Silaging Napier Grass

Silage is essential for safe, stable, and efficient feedstock supply. Reasons include:

1. Air Removal: Fresh grass is airy and may float in digesters, damaging roofs or clogging gas pipes. Silaging removes air through hydraulic compression or jumbo bagging (JF Silo Master).
2. Pre-Fermentation: During 24+ days of silaging, acidification and hydrolysis begin, boosting biogas yield by 5–10%.
3. Weather-Proofing: Ensures feedstock availability during monsoons and winters when harvesting isn't possible.

Properly silaged Napier is denser, more digestible, and safer for biogas plant operations.
