10 YARI KO ITO ! A farmer’s passion sweetens smell of biogas Controlling the odor from pigpens, if not totally eliminating it, has been the challenge for many swine raisers, especially in urban areas. P C A R R D ’ s Magsasaka-Siyentista (MS) Felimon ‘Boy’ Santander from Mandug, Davao City, a swine raiser and a biogas advocate, has come up with an alternative and environment-friendly farming technology to combat this problem. Problem no more M S S a n t a n d e r constructed his own Above: MS Santander speaks about his modified biogas technology during the 1st Biogas Techno Caravan in Davao del Norte. Left: MS Santander’s biogas digester in his backyard.
11 modified biogas digester in his backyard in 1995. It eliminated the unpleasant odor coming from the pigpen, at the same time provided a free source of cooking gas. He also started to promote biogas and provide free fuel to his neighbors. Consequently, other pigpen owners requested Santander’s assistance in constructing their own biogas digester. MS Santander’s modified digester’s features are simple. It uses concrete materials and ranges from 2 cubic meters to 20 cubic meters. Through his modified biogas digester, Santander has proven that biogas technology can also be used in small-scale, backyard pigpens. From hobby to money MS Santander, a political science graduate, was a Sangguniang Bayan technical staff for eight years. During those years, swine raising was his hobby and source of additional income. With the Cookstove fueled by biogas.
