This paper explores the integration of biogas production with energy-efficient water sprinkling systems for irrigation. Biogas, produced through the anaerobic digestion of organic waste, offers a renewable and sustainable energy source. Utilizing biogas to power irrigation systems can enhance energy efficiency and reduce reliance on fossil fuels. This research investigates the process of biogas production, its potential energy yield, and its application in water sprinkling systems. Additionally, the paper examines the economic and environmental benefits of this integrated approach, providing a comprehensive analysis of its feasibility and impact on sustainable agriculture.
