I guess to briefly speak to that, I think that reinforces why we need to have these clusters. It's very adaptive and forward-thinking. I have a little bit of a background in industrial ecology, and a little bit with integrated biosystems. On a very high level we're beginning to identify some possibilities for clustering around here. If you have a dairy farm up the road, a potato farm will cull potatoes, and there are a lot of opportunities for anaerobic digestion. Even the thought of heating a warehouse with your own rotten potatoes that would normally go to waste.... Well, they don't go to waste in so many ways, but it would be so much more efficient a way of putting those things to use. The digestate from that is actually the best fertilizer you can get, I've been told. It gets into the ground at a tenfold rate compared with traditional fertilizers.
Again, this comes back to the critical mass necessary to make these things happen. One farmer cannot do it, but ten can.
