O J Neil Biomass Ltd

Straw 2022 has started! Making the most of the beautiful weather and dry straw, almost too dry - wettest bale I could find was 8% 😝

Recycling all nutrients and organic matter back to the soil is the aim of closed loop farming. This helps to preserve the nutrients and carbon levels in the soil and allows farming to be sustainable.

Biomass is becoming an increasingly popular element of closed loop farming, as it is a renewable source of energy that cannot be depleted. As long as there are plants on the planet, then biomass will be available as an energy source. Biomass is critically important given the challenges we face today.

The nation that destroys its soil, destroys itself.

At the moment, the agricultural sector is one of the biggest emitters of CO2 and is a major contributor to the dramatic changes we are seeing to our climate around the world and here in the UK.

Regenerative agriculture and agroecology are two ways in which we can begin to improve soil health, take a step away from intensive farming and work towards our net-zero target.

To find out more about these practices, read our new article “Regenerative Agriculture and Agroecology” on our website, https://ojneilcontracting.co.uk/regenerative-agriculture-and-agroecology/. Or to discuss the practical steps you can take on your farm, please speak to our experts on 01284 811509 or email [email protected] today.

Congratulations to the team on their recent Utility of the Year award at the Utility Week Awards ceremony in London. It's been great working with you over the years.

Biomass is a sustainably derived plant material that can be used as fuel to produce energy to heat and power homes and businesses.

Innovative UK biomass projects are set to receive a £26 million funding boost as the government ramps up its plans to use organic waste to fuel its net-zero aspirations.

At O J Neil Contracting, we provide year-round biomass services across the southeast by harvesting energy crops for biomass producers and supplying straw and virgin wood chips to sustainable power stations.

The Growing Benefits of Biosolids - Explained.

Biosolids are solid organic matter recovered from the sewage treatment process and used as a fertiliser. Containing a rich variety of minerals and nutrients, it makes them a fantastic source of nutrients for improving soil health and stimulating plant growth and a cost-effective alternative to manufactured fertilisers.

The benefits include improved crop yields, reduced fertiliser production and better soil quality, among others.

The Growing Benefits of Biosolids | OJ Neil Contracting What are the benefits of biosolids and how can they improve soil health? We cover some of the basics before taking a deep dive into biosolids.

All our biosolids are loaded with 13 ton tracked excavators. This ensures that even the wettest stockpiles are loaded without damage to the land. Our excavators are moved from stockpile to stockpile using our internal lowloader fleet.

Beautiful day to be delivering Biosolids ☀️☀️

We deliver nutrient rich Biosolids and Composts to farms across the County.

Get in touch for more details.

We recently worked with the fantastic Matt Gregory Transport Ltd and supplied a temporary trackway at RAF Mildenhall.

Our trackway enabled Matt Gregory Transport's Hiab Lorry to lift & remove a container generator that would have been otherwise inaccessible.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for doing business with us and to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Can you tell what it is supposed to be?

The UK Government’s Net Zero ambitions are laudable, but slowing renewable generation shows that reality needs to catch up. In a recent REA report, it noted that the power sector saw 34.85% of its energy come from renewable sources with Biomass being a major source. We are thrilled to be working towards a greener future.
