Project to reduce methane emissions through Gold Standard Composting

DN Agrar Group’s project transforms dairy manure into high-quality, granular organic fertilizer using advanced Kohshin composting technology.
 
Operating at two farms in Romania, the system processes manure through an accelerated, 30‑40 day aerobic cycle that eliminates pathogens and odors while significantly reducing methane emissions. This sustainable solution not only improves soil health and fertility but also supports local economies by creating green jobs and new revenue streams. In line with international sustainability standards, the project is undergoing Gold Standard certification to secure carbon credits and further its commitment to climate action and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
