Across much of India, an energy crunch caused by the Iran war has prompted long queues for cooking gas cyclinders. However, since the 1980s India has also promoted biogas as a low-cost rural energy source, subsidising more than five million "digester" units that convert farm waste into methane for cooking, and nitrogen-rich slurry for fertiliser. ]]></image:caption>
