Biomethane has been “the next big thing” in the energy transition for years—yet much of its potential is still untapped.

Now SUBLIME Energie is proposing an off-grid model: liquefy biogas on farms, transport it, and turn it into fuel.

It sounds elegant. But:

If liquefaction is energy-intensive and logistics-heavy, does this really scale—or just work in niche cases?

Robotics is no bullshit! 💩 I mean it, just look at these barn cleaning robots. Lely Discovery Collector uses clever suction technology to manage manure on farms. Cows are happier and healthier when barns are cleaner, producing better milk. In this way, farmers can have a more

🌥️ Pflanzen wachsen nicht nach Kalender. Sie wachsen nach Wetter und Standort. Doch genau das ist oft schwer messbar – vor allem bei Wolken oder schlechtem Licht. Eine ZALF-Studie zeigt jetzt: Radar-Satelliten können helfen. 🛰️

Sie erkennen wichtige Wachstumsphasen zuverlässig. Die Daten kommen von Sentinel-1 und sind regelmäßig verfügbar.

GEODASH Targets Q3 Launch for Map-Free Farm Spraying Drone System

GEODASH is targeting Q3 2026 for a map-free agricultural spraying drone built with DroneDash AI vision and GEODNET RTK positioning. The promise is not a bigger aircraft. It is fewer pauses between seeing a crop problem and acting on it, if the company can clear manufacturing, regulation, spray quality, and service hurdles across large farms where weather, labour, terrain, and chemical windows already punish slow decisions in the field daily.
