Agricultural apprentices from Sparsholt College toured Apsley Farms in Andover, a 1,150-acre farm with an anaerobic digestion facility. The farm generates 114 GWh of biomethane and 9.4 GWh of renewable electricity annually, enough to supply gas to about 10,000 homes.

The facility also produces sustainable liquid CO2, mulch, and dry ice. The visit aimed to illustrate how modern farming can be both productive and environmentally responsible, bridging theoretical learning with practical applications in renewable energy and agriculture.
