Methane yield figures are determined using a calculation based on the Weissbach formula and actual yield and quality results from the UK & Ireland PACTS Trials. This formula predicts gas output based
on the value of the key substrates in the forage prior to fermentation. The calculation of Fermentable Organic Dry Matter, or ‘FoTs’, is a key part of the formula and the FoTs is easily determined using
standard laboratory results.
